Indulge in the delicious layers of Neapolitan Cake, where rich chocolate, creamy vanilla, and luscious strawberry unite for a stunning dessert experience. This showstopper not only satisfies your sweet tooth but also adds vibrant color to any gathering.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup milk
  • 4 large eggs
  • ½ cup cocoa powder (unsweetened)
  • 1 cup strawberry puree

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour three 8-inch round cake pans.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Gradually add milk.
  3. Divide the batter into three bowls. Mix cocoa powder into one for chocolate flavor, strawberry puree into another for strawberry, and keep the last bowl plain for vanilla.
  4. Pour each batter into prepared pans and bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  5. Cool cakes in their pans for about 10 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
  6. Once cooled, stack the layers: chocolate on the bottom, vanilla in the middle, and strawberry on top. Frost between layers with your choice of icing.
