Strawberry yogurt cake is a moist dessert made with strawberry-flavored yogurt and can be decorated with fresh strawberries. It can be made in sheets, loaves, or layers with whipped cream or buttercream frosting and is often served with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
A strawberry yogurt cake is a baked dessert made from yogurt. While this type of cake may include fresh strawberries, it’s usually made with a fairly large container of strawberry-flavored yogurt. The flavored yogurt not only adds a strawberry flavor to the cake but also helps create a moist texture. Strawberry yogurt cakes can be in sheets, loaves or layers.
Layer cakes can have a filling, in addition to the filling, made of whipped cream mixed with strawberry yogurt. Fresh strawberries, usually peeled and halved, can decorate the top and/or sides of a strawberry yogurt layer cake. Puff and loaf cakes can also have whipped cream and a strawberry yogurt topping, or they can feature a vanilla or almond buttercream frosting. This icing, made with powder or icing, sugar, butter, milk, and a flavoring such as vanilla or almond extract, can add a few drops of red food coloring to create a pink tint.
Basically, Strawberry Yogurt Cakes are made like a white cake of flour, baking powder, salt, butter, and granulated white sugar. The dry ingredients are mixed together in a bowl. In another bowl, sugar is blended or creamed into the softened butter, and then the strawberry yogurt, as well as vanilla or almond extract and beaten eggs, are stirred into the butter-sugar mixture. Amounts of blended dry ingredients are gradually blended into the yogurt mixture until a smooth, well-blended batter is obtained. After baking in a glass or metal pan, a strawberry yogurt cake is typically moist with a crispy, golden brown crust.
Some bakers like to insert fresh peeled and halved strawberries on top of the batter before baking the cake. Others like to stir chopped strawberries into yogurt before mixing it into cake batter. While a strawberry yogurt cake tends to have a sweet, fruity aroma when baked, adding fresh berries, either in the batter or on top of it, can intensify the fragrance. If the cake is not glazed, it can be served hot.
Hot or cold, a strawberry yogurt cake is often topped with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. Some bakers like to dust the top with powdered sugar. If no fresh strawberries were used on or over the batter, a few sliced strawberries are often used to garnish the pie.
