Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a 9-inch round cake pan with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla extract, and mix until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.
  4. Press the dough evenly into the prepared cake pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cookie base to cool completely in the pan.
  5. While the cookie base is cooling, prepare the frosting. In a medium bowl, beat the softened butter until creamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar, mixing until smooth. Add the vanilla extract and milk, and continue to beat until the frosting is light and fluffy.
  6. Once the cookie base has cooled, spread an even layer of frosting over the top.
  7. Place a hulled strawberry, pointed side up, on top of the frosting to resemble a Santa hat. Repeat with the remaining strawberries.
  8. Chill the cake in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the frosting to set.

Tip

For the best results, make sure the cookie base is completely cooled before spreading the frosting. This will prevent the frosting from melting and ensure a smooth and even layer.
