In our neighborhood, we always have that homeowners gathering. We usually hold it at the house of someone who has a huge backyard so it can hold us all. It’s a potluck type of gathering-everyone is encouraged to bring food that they can share with everyone. I brought this chocolate strawberry dream cake. It felt like a dream! The cake was gone within a few minutes. I also received a few pat on the backs and a few praises. Well, ladies and gentlemen, I only have Mr. Food to thank for this recipe.
Speaking of Mr. Food, let’s see what our friends from over there have to say about this recipe:
“We first made Chocolate Strawberry Dream Cake for one of our monthly office birthday parties. We all thought it was so good that we’ve had it every month since!”
I can’t blame you for wanting to eat this marvelous cake again and again. This started out as a special occasion cake in our household, but it ended up becoming a part of the regular roster of desserts. This is how much we love this cake.
The best thing about this- it’s easy to make!
