Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined.
Fold in the pureed strawberries until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
Once cooled, place one layer on a serving plate, spread a layer of whipped cream on top, and sprinkle with diced strawberries. Place the second layer on top and repeat with more whipped cream and strawberries.
Slice and serve, enjoying the fresh flavors of strawberry bliss!
