🍰 Instructions

1️⃣ Preheat oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Grease and line two 9-inch round cake pans.

2️⃣ Mix dry ingredients:
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.

3️⃣ Add wet ingredients:
In another bowl, combine buttermilk, vegetable oil, and eggs. Stir into the dry ingredients until smooth and well combined.

4️⃣ Bake:
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans. Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool completely on a wire rack.

5️⃣ Prepare the strawberry filling:
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook until the strawberries release their juice and soften. Optional: mix cornstarch with a tablespoon of water and add to thicken slightly. Let cool completely.

6️⃣ Assemble the cake:
Place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread the strawberry filling evenly over the top. Place the second cake layer on top. Optional: frost with whipped cream or chocolate ganache for extra indulgence.

7️⃣ Serve and enjoy:
Slice and savor the perfect combination of chocolate and fresh strawberries! πŸ“πŸ«
