01 Step
Recipe View
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a fluted tube pan (such as a Bundt pan) to prevent sticking. (Prep time: 5 minutes)
02 Step
Recipe View
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the granulated sugar, 1 cup plus 2 teaspoons of softened butter, and softened cream cheese until the mixture is light and fluffy. This should take approximately 3-5 minutes using an electric mixer.
03 Step
Recipe View
Add the vanilla extract and salt to the creamed mixture. Mix until well combined. Then, add the eggs one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next. (Mixing time: 2 minutes)
04 Step
Recipe View
Gradually add the sifted all-purpose flour, one cup at a time, to the wet ingredients. Mix until just combined; be careful not to overmix, as this can result in a tough cake.
05 Step
Recipe View
Gently fold in the muddled strawberries until they are evenly distributed throughout the batter. (Folding time: 2 minutes)
06 Step
Recipe View
Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan. Sprinkle the vanilla sugar evenly over the top of the batter. (Prep time: 2 minutes)
07 Step
Recipe View
Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 55-65 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. (Bake time: 55-65 minutes)
08 Step
Recipe View
Remove the cake from the oven and place it on a wire rack to cool for 5-10 minutes. This allows the cake to slightly contract and makes it easier to remove from the pan.
09 Step
Recipe View
Carefully invert the cake onto a serving plate or cooling rack. Allow it to cool completely before slicing and serving. (Cooling time: 1-2 hours)
For best results, ensure all ingredients are at room temperature before beginning the recipe. This helps the batter emulsify properly and creates a more even texture.
Muddling the strawberries releases their juices and intensifies their flavor throughout the cake. Be gentle when folding them into the batter to avoid overmixing.
If you don't have vanilla sugar, you can make your own by combining granulated sugar with a vanilla bean pod in a sealed container for a few days, or by adding a few drops of vanilla extract to regular sugar.
To prevent the cake from sticking, you can also dust the greased pan with powdered sugar instead of flour.
