Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (160°C fan) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Gradually fold in the self-raising flour until the batter is smooth.
- Gently fold in the chopped strawberries.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly. Bake for about 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean.
- While the cake is baking, prepare the jelly mixture. Dissolve the strawberry jelly crystals in 300ml of boiling water, stirring until completely dissolved. Allow it to cool to room temperature.
- Once the cake is done, remove it from the oven and use the handle of a wooden spoon to poke holes all over the cake.
- Pour the cooled strawberry jelly mixture evenly over the cake, ensuring it fills the holes.
- Let the cake cool completely, then refrigerate for about 30 minutes to allow the jelly to set.
- Whip the double cream and icing sugar together until it forms stiff peaks.
- Spread the whipped cream over the chilled cake.
- In a separate bowl, mix the crushed digestive biscuits with any remaining chopped strawberries.
- Sprinkle the strawberry and biscuit mixture over the top of the whipped cream.
- Slice, serve, and enjoy your delicious Strawberry Crunch Poke Cake!
