Cake
- 3 cups freeze dried strawberries
- 1 cup melted coconut oil
- ½ cup plain greek yogurt or sour cream
- 2 large eggs
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup high-quality strawberry jam
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 ½ cups all purpose flour
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ¼ cup milk
Frosting
- 6 ounces cream cheese at room temperature
- 2 sticks salted butter at room temperature
- 2 ½-3 cups powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ cup warm milk
- ⅓ cup strawberry jam
- 1 cup brown rice crispies
Cake Preparation
In a blender or food processor, process 3 cups freeze-dried strawberries into a fine powder.
Preheat the oven to 350° F. Line a 9×13 inch baking dish with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, beat together the coconut oil, yogurt, eggs, sugar, strawberry jam, and vanilla. Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add about ⅔ of the strawberry powder (save the remainder for the frosting). Mix until just combined, then slowly beat in the milk until fully combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 30-35 minutes, until the top is just set and no longer wiggly in the center. Remove and let cool.
Frosting Preparation
To make the frosting: In a stand mixer, beat together the cream cheese until whipped.
Add the butter and beat until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
Add the powdered sugar and vanilla. Beat until the frosting is light and fluffy, then slowly stream in the milk until your desired consistency is reached, you may not use it all.
Frost the cake all over. Swirl the jam into the frosting, not fully mixing it in.
Add the rice crispies to a blender or ziplock bag. Crush into fine crumbs, then mix in the remaining strawberry powder (about 3 tablespoons). Sprinkle the crumbs over the cake. Slice, eat and enjoy!
