Strawberry Cake

I found this recipe and my family loved it, so here it is.

INGREDIENTS
1 package white cake mix
1 egg white
1 cup white sugar
1 cup sliced fresh strawberries

1. Prepare the cake according to package instructions for three 8 inch round cake pans. Bake as directed on the package. Cool on wire rack.
2. To make the Frosting: In a large bowl, beat the egg white, sugar and strawberries on high speed until very stiff peaks form. This takes about 15-20 min. The frosting really grows so be sure you use a large bowl.
3. To assemble the cake: Place one layer on a serving plate, put in a couple toothpicks (this helps to hold the layers together) and frost with 1/4 of the frosting. Repeat with second layer. Place third layer on top, and frost top and sides of cake with the remaining frosting. Garnish with additional sliced strawberries.

I refrigerated it when I was done for an hour or two. I took the quick route and used two 8 inch cake pans and did not put toothpicks in the cake. It worked great! Deborah
