Ingredients
1 strawberry cake mix, baked and cooled in a 9×13 dish
1 can evaporated milk, 15 oz
1/2 to 1 can sweetened condensed milk, 12 oz
1/2 to 1 cup whole milk
1 cup strawberries, fresh or frozen
2 cups cold heavy cream
1/4 to 1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 to 1 1/2 cups strawberry crunch topping
Fresh strawberries, optional for garnish
Strawberry Crunch Topping:
8 pink strawberry wafers, crushed
6 Golden Oreos, crushed
Instructions
Bake the strawberry cake mix according to package directions in a 9×13 baking dish. Let cool for about 1 hour.
Add strawberries, evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, and whole milk to a blender. Blend until smooth. Refrigerate until ready to use.
In a large bowl, whip cold heavy cream with powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Refrigerate.
Poke holes all over the cooled cake using a fork.
Pour half of the strawberry milk mixture over the cake. Let it absorb for 5–8 minutes.
Pour the remaining milk mixture over the cake. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Before serving, spread whipped topping over the cake.
Sprinkle with strawberry crunch topping and garnish with fresh strawberries if desired.
Notes
Adjust the condensed milk for sweetness and the whole milk for a lighter or milkier texture. For best flavor and texture, chill the cake overnight before serving.
