White Chocolate Strawberry Cake

I made this cake last year and my family loved it. Wonderful recipe!

Absolutely Amazing! So moist and flavorful and super easy to prepare.

The frosting was simple to make and tasted great not too sweet and not too plain.

This cake was a big hit with both of my sons who both love strawberry cake.

The cake was very moist and has a powerful strawberry flavor and it is also super super sweet.
