Ingredients
Method
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan thoroughly.
- Prepare the cake batter by creaming together ½ cup softened butter with 1 cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add 2 eggs to the butter mixture, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract and sour cream until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture.
- Spread the batter evenly in your prepared pan.
- For the cream cheese layer, beat softened cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth. Add 2 eggs and beat until well combined.
- Gently spread the cream cheese mixture over the cake batter and scatter the diced strawberries on top.
- Make the crumble topping by combining remaining flour, brown sugar, and remaining sugar. Cut in cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Sprinkle the crumble generously over the strawberries.
- Bake for 45-55 minutes until the top turns golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Cool completely in the pan on a wire rack for at least 2 hours.
Notes
Bring all dairy ingredients to room temperature before starting. Grease the pan thoroughly to prevent sticking. Use fresh strawberries for best flavor. Refrigerate leftovers and consume within 5 days.
