  • 1 egg
  • 2 cups flour
  • 4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 4 cups strawberries hulled and diced
  • whipped cream

Instructions

  • In a stand mixer, cream butter, sugar, and egg.
  • In a medium bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, and salt. While mixer is on low speed, alternate adding flour mixture and milk to the butter mixture until all ingredients are incorporated. Add in vanilla and mix until blended.
  • Spread batter into a greased 9 x 13 baking dish. Bake at 350 for 25 - 30 minutes or until golden on top. Remove from oven and cool completely.
