- 300 g soft butter
- 220 g sugar
- 1 packet vanilla sugar
- 5 size M eggs
- 270 g flour (Type 405)
- 3 tsp baking powder

- 200 g cream
- 200 g sour cream
- 400 g cream cheese
- 150 g powdered sugar
- 1 packet vanilla sugar (for frosting)

Beat soft butter with sugar and vanilla sugar until creamy and light.
Gradually stir in the eggs, one at a time.
In a separate bowl, mix flour, baking powder, and salt.
Alternately add the flour mixture and milk to the batter until smooth.
Preheat your oven to 180°C (160°C for fan oven) and grease the baking tray (39 x 26 x 4 cm).
Pour the dough into the tray and smooth it out.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, testing with a kebab skewer for doneness.
While the cake is baking, prepare the strawberry sauce by pureeing strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice in a bowl.
After the cake has cooled slightly, poke holes into it with the handle of a wooden spoon.
Pour the strawberry sauce into the holes and allow the cake to cool completely.
Whip the cream until stiff and set aside.
Mix sour cream, cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla sugar in a bowl, then fold in whipped cream.
Spread the frosting over the cooled cake and top with halved strawberries.
Serve chilled for best flavor.
