Ingredients
- 1 box (15.25 oz) strawberry cake mix
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and generously grease a 9×13 inch baking pan with cooking spray or butter.
- Pour the strawberry cake mix into a large mixing bowl, making a small well in the center for the wet ingredients.
- Add the eggs and vegetable oil to the cake mix. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes until the batter becomes smooth and well combined.
- Gently fold in the white chocolate chips with a spatula until they’re evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Transfer the batter to your prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Give the pan a gentle tap on the counter to release any air bubbles.
- Bake for 28-32 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean with a few moist crumbs.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 15 minutes.
- Slice into squares and serve slightly warm.
Notes
- For an extra-special presentation, dust the top with a little powdered sugar right before serving, or add a few fresh strawberry slices as garnish.
- Toss white chocolate chips with 1 tablespoon of the dry cake mix before folding them in to prevent sinking.
- Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick in multiple spots to ensure you’re testing cake, not just melted chocolate.
- Refrigerate white chocolate chips for 30 minutes before folding for better shape retention.
- Enhance strawberry flavor by adding 1-2 teaspoons of strawberry extract.
