Equipment

  • half sheet cake high-sided baking pan (13x18 in)
  • electric hand mixer
  • large mixing bowl
  • can opener

Ingredients

  • 2 white cake box mixes (15.5 oz each box)
  • 1 cup butter (melted)
  • 2 cups milk
  • 6 eggs (egg whites only)
  • 4 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cans strawberry pie filling (21 oz each)
  • 64 fl oz heavy whipping cream (8 cups) (2 containers of 32 oz)
  • 1.5 oz vanilla instant jello pudding pack (family size)
  • (13x18 inch half-sheet pan)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F .
    Pour the two white boxed cake mixes into a large mixing bowl and add six egg whites, a cup of melted butter, 2 cups of milk, and two teaspoons of vanilla extract.
    Mix well with a large wooden spoon or use an electric hand mixer, until well blended.
  • *One easy method is to crack the egg into a bowl and transfer the yolk between the shell halves, letting the whites flow into the bowl.
    Alternatively, use your fingers to lift the yolk, allowing the whites to slip through.
  • Pour the cake batter into your half-sheet baking dish and bake it at 350°F for 30 to 35 minutes or until the toothpick comes out clean.
  • As soon as the cake is done baking, remove it with oven-safe mitts and poke holes in it with the end of a wooden spoon or a straw.
    Pour both cans of strawberry pie filling on the cake and spread evenly.
    Let the cake cool completely before adding the topping.
  • To make the whipped cream topping, add the instant vanilla Jell-O pudding pack and 1-2 teaspoons of vanilla extract to a bowl with the heavy whipping cream.
    Using an electric mixer, blend until peaks form.
    Smear on top of the cake and enjoy!
    Feel free to garnish with freshly sliced strawberries, or, for a treat, use freeze-dried strawberries.
