Ingredients

  • 1 box Betty Crocker™ Delights Super Moist™ Lemon Cake Mix
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons poppy seeds
  • 1 to 2 tubs (16 oz) Betty Crocker™ Rich & Creamy Vanilla Frosting
  • 1/3 cup sliced fresh strawberries (about 4 large strawberries)
  • Fresh strawberries, fresh blackberries and chopped pistachios, for topping

Steps

  • 1
    Begin by gathering your ingredients.
  • 2
    Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for a dark or nonstick pan). Grease bottom only of a 13-by-9-inch pan and set aside.
  • 3
    In a large bowl, beat together cake mix, water, vegetable oil, eggs and poppy seeds on low speed 30 seconds; increase speed to medium and beat 2 minutes more. Pour batter into prepared pan.
  • 4
    Bake cake about 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cake cool 15 minutes in pan; carefully remove from pan and cool completely on a cooling rack.
  • 5
    Cut cake into circles using a 3-inch wide cookie cutter (you should get between 7-8 circles).
  • 6
    Frost a VERY thin layer of frosting on the sides and top of each cake. Place cakes on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet and set in freezer for 1 hour to harden.
  • 7
    Remove cakes from freezer; top half of the cakes with frosting and a layer of sliced strawberries. Top strawberry layer with a dollop of frosting and then top with second cake. Return to freezer for another 30-45 minutes or until cakes are hardened and set.
  • 8
    Frost frozen cakes with remaining frosting.
  • 9
    Garnish with fresh strawberries, blackberries and chopped pistachios.
