Ingredients

  • ½ cup unsalted butter (melted, 1 stick)
  • 5 oz strawberries (Approximately 1 1/4 cups)
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • cup packed light brown sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°, Grease an 8-inch (square or round) baking dish with butter or spray, and set aside
  • Using your hands or the back of a fork, mash the berries to release all their juices, and stir in 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar. Set aside
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, brown sugar, milk and salt. Add the flour and baking powder and continue whisking until the batter is smooth
  • Transfer the batter (it’s not a large amount) to the greased baking dish, and spread it evenly into the corners and side
  • Spoon the strawberries and all their juices over the top of the cake batter. Place in the oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean when placed in the center of the cake. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes before spooning into bowls
  • Serve warm with vanilla ice cream

Notes

If using frozen strawberries, thaw and then drain them, before adding the granulated sugar
