Ingredients

  • ⅓ cup Oil
  • ⅓ cup Dahi
  • ½ cup + 2 tbsp Powdered sugar
  • ½ tsp Strawberry essence
  • ½ tsp Pink food colour
  • 1 cup Maida
  • 1 tsp Baking powder
  • ½ tsp Baking soda
  • A pinch of Salt
  • ½ cup Milk
  • ½ cup Whipping cream
  • ½ cup strawberry ice cream

Instructions

  • In a bowl mix together oil, dahi and powdered sugar. Then add strawberry essence and pink food colour.
  • Sift maida, baking powder, baking soda and salt and fold gently in the wet ingredients.
  • Gradually add milk and make a smooth batter. Pour this batter in a mould.
  • Steam the cake first on medium flame for 40 mins then on low flame for 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, whip the cream till it reaches soft peak stage. The cream will double in its size after it's whipped properly. So ½ cup of cream will become 1 cup.
  • Keep aside ¼ cup of the soft peaked whipped cream and add pink food colour in it and whip again for a minute.
  • Once the cake is cooled down, remove it from the mould and cut it into 4 layers where 1 layer should be thin and remaining 3 should be equal sized thick layers. Crush the thin layer into fine pieces with fingers.
  • Now start layering the cake. Add strawberry ice cream in between the layers.
  • Frost the cake with pink whipped cream and garnish with crushed cake pieces.
