Method
 

Bake the Cake
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease two 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Add the milk, softened butter, eggs, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until smooth.
  4. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans.
  5. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then turn them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Prepare the Cream Filling
  1. In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream with an electric mixer until soft peaks form.
  2. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, and continue to whip until stiff peaks form.
Assemble the Cake
  1. Once the cakes are completely cool, place one layer on a serving plate.
  2. Spread half of the whipped cream filling over the first layer.
  3. Add half of the sliced strawberries on top of the cream filling.
  4. Place the second layer of cake on top and repeat the process with the remaining cream and strawberries.
Add the Topping
  1. Heat the strawberry jam in a small saucepan over low heat until melted.
  2. Drizzle the melted jam over the top of the assembled cake and add any remaining strawberry slices for decoration.
