It\u2019s a showstopping treat packed with real strawberry flavor, exactly like Good Humor\u2019s iconic Strawberry Shortcake bars.<\/p>\n<p>This two-layer cake uses fresh strawberries for natural flavor and color. It\u2019s topped with luscious vanilla frosting and a crunchy coating made up of Nilla Wafer cookies and freeze-dried strawberries for a fun texture with every bite.<\/p>\n<h2>What is strawberry crunch cake?<\/h2>\n<p>This recipe is much like Strawberry Shortcake ice cream bars (and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/strawberry-crunch-ice-cream-cake\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/strawberry-crunch-ice-cream-cake\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">strawberry crunch ice cream cake<\/a>), which have a layer of strawberry, a layer of vanilla and a crunchy strawberry vanilla topping. Our strawberry crunch cake recipe uses all these elements to create a very berry layered cake.<\/p>\n<h2>Strawberry Crunch Cake Ingredients<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1948377\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/How-to-Make-Strawberry-Crunch-Cake-Recipe_Molly-Allen-for-Taste-of-Home_DSC2669-Edit_YVedit.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Ingredients for Strawberry Crunch Cake Recipe \" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Molly Allen For Taste Of Home <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Butter:<\/strong> Butter provides flavor, fat and moisture for this strawberry shortcake crunch cake. Be sure to start with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-soften-butter-quickly\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-soften-butter-quickly\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">softened butter<\/a> to properly cream the butter and sugar mixture until light and fluffy.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Fresh strawberries:<\/strong> This strawberry crunch cake recipe skips gelatin or store-bought mixes. The fresh strawberries are reduced to eliminate an excess of moisture and then folded into the batter.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sugar:<\/strong> We use 1-1\/2 cups granulated sugar to sweeten our strawberry crunch cake recipe.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Eggs:<\/strong> The cake batter is prepared with two whole eggs and one egg white. This helps eliminate the amount of yellow added to the cake from egg yolks, giving the cake more of a pink hue.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Vanilla extract:<\/strong> A touch of vanilla extract rounds out the flavors of this strawberry shortcake crunch cake with delicate, sweet, floral notes.<\/li>\n<li><strong>All-purpose flour:<\/strong> We love using all-purpose flour for our layer cake recipes. It creates strong enough layers that can stand tall and sturdy on one another while keeping a soft, tender, moist inner crumb.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Leaveners:<\/strong> To get two tall, springy layers, we use both baking powder and baking soda in our strawberry crunch cake recipe. If you\u2019ve had both of these ingredients sitting in your pantry for a while, you can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/testing-baking-powder-and-soda\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/testing-baking-powder-and-soda\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">test baking powder and baking soda<\/a> to see if they\u2019ve gone bad.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Milk:<\/strong> You can really use any type of milk, cream or nondairy milk for the cake layers. We just need a moistening and enriching ingredient, so use what you prefer!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Frosting:<\/strong> We make an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/easy-vanilla-buttercream-frosting\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/easy-vanilla-buttercream-frosting\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">easy vanilla buttercream frosting<\/a> with butter, confectioners\u2019 sugar, milk and vanilla extract.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Crunchy topping:<\/strong> To make the piece de resistance, you\u2019ll need freeze-dried strawberries and Nilla Wafers. Freeze-dried strawberries add an unbeatable fresh and tangy flavor. You can find them at most grocery stores. Nilla Wafers have the ideal texture for our crunch topping. If you don\u2019t have Nilla Wafers, use Golden Oreos instead.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Directions<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Prep the strawberry puree<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1948379\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/How-to-Make-Strawberry-Crunch-Cake-Recipe_Molly-Allen-for-Taste-of-Home_DSC2674_YVedit.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Strawberry puree in small bowl\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Molly Allen For Taste Of Home <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Place the strawberries in a food processor and pulse until smooth.

Golden Oreos are a great swap for the crunch topping! Remove the creme filling before pulsing in a food processor.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Try a vanilla cake:<\/strong> Switch up the flavor of this cake by making a homemade vanilla cake or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/best-white-cake-mix\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/best-white-cake-mix\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">white box mix<\/a>. Top the cake with strawberry frosting and the crunch topping.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Make cupcakes:<\/strong> Prefer a bite-sized treat? Use the same strawberry crunch cake recipe to fill a lined cupcake pan. Bake the cupcakes for 20 to 22 minutes. Top with the vanilla frosting and the crunch topping.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How to Store Strawberry Crunch Cake<\/h2>\n<p>Leftovers can be stored with a cake dome over a cake stand or in an airtight container. Store this cake at room temperature for up to two days or in the fridge for up to four days. Just know the crunchy topping will soften over time, but it will still taste great!<\/p>\n<h3>Can you make strawberry crunch cake ahead of time?<\/h3>\n<p>The cake layers for this strawberry shortcake crunch cake can be baked and cooled ahead of time. The full cake can also be assembled and frosted one day before you plan to serve it. Save making and adding the crunch topping until just before you\u2019re serving the cake to be sure the texture is still crunchy.<\/p>\n<h2>Strawberry Crunch Cake Tips<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1948393\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/How-to-Make-Strawberry-Crunch-Cake-Recipe_Molly-Allen-for-Taste-of-Home_DSC2697_YVedit.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Slice of strawberry crunch cake on plate\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Molly Allen For Taste Of Home <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Can you use store-bought cake mix in a pinch?<\/h3>\n<p>You can certainly use a store-bought strawberry cake mix to make this strawberry crunch cake recipe.
