Strawberry Cake Filling Fecipe

While my previous cake may have been a visual failure, the taste sure made up for it!

This is the filling recipe I used, and its super quick and easy to make. I think it is best paired with plain white cake (since the it's already so sweet and you don't want to distract from the flavor). I used plain vanilla icing, but I suppose it wouldn't hurt to mix in some pureed strawberries to the icing.

I found the recipe here , but it's short so I'll just post it:
2 1/2 cups coarsely chopped fresh strawberries
1/2 cup sugar
2 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch

  1. Bring all ingredients to a boil in a heavy small sauce pan, stirring constantly and crushing berries slightly with back of spoon.
  2. Boil 2 minutes to thicken, stirring constantly (mixture will be slightly chunky).
  3. Pour into bowl and cool completely.
So easy and so delicious!

  1. Yum that looks so good! I'm going to have to try the recipe. I was looking for a good strawberry filling recipe the other week and I couldn't find a good one. Thanks!
