SONNY JAMES' YEAR 'ROUND STRAWBERRY CAKE
Sonny James was a very popular country music entertainer and Grand Old Opry star when I was a teenager. I got this recipe on a trip to Nashville, Tennessee in the early 70s. Sonny James said this was one of the favorite cakes served on his cattle ranch in Alabama. And he always had it waiting when his father visited for Sunday dinner.
1 pkg white cake mix
1 pkg (3-oz) strawberry jello
3 tbsps flour
1 cup salad oil
1/2 cup water
4 eggs
1 pkg (10-oz) frozen strawberries, thawed
1 stick margarine
1 box confectioner's sugar
Combine the cake mix, jello, and flour in a large mixing bowl. Add oil and water and blend well. Add eggs, one at a time, beating one minute after each addition. Fold half of the strawberries into the batter. Grease two cake pans, line bottoms with waxed paper circles and grease again. Pour in the batter. Bake at 350 degrees for about 40 minutes. Cool and place one layer on the serving plate. Cover the top with icing. Add the second layer and spread with icing made from the margarine, sugar and remaining strawberries. For Valentine's Day you could use extra berry halves to form a heart on the top of the cake. Or serve the cake on a pretty pedestal cake pan and place fresh strawberries around the bottom edge of the cake. Place 3 whole berries, with stems still attached, in the center of the top of the cake.
Enjoy!
