About

Liv's Strawberry Sheet Cake is a delicious dessert with a fun backstory that's sure to delight! It's named after our gal, Liv, the mastermind behind this sweet and tangy treat. Liv grew up on a farm where fresh strawberries were abundant, so she would spend countless hours in the kitchen perfecting her family's favorite dessert... a moist and fluffy strawberry sheet cake. Liv wanted to put her own little spin on her family's favorite, so she added a hint of rosé flavor to a sugary glaze to give the classic cake a floral twist... and thus, Liv's Strawberry Sheet Cake was born. Now you get to enjoy a slice that is not only delicious and unique, but also pays homage to Liv's family's traditions and her creativity and ingenuity in the kitchen, and we just love that!

  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 3 cups cake flour, divided into thirds
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 cup sparkling or still rosé wine
  • strawberries, to taste, sliced, for serving
  • For the glaze:
  • 1/4 cup seedless strawberry jam
  • 1/4 cup sparkling or still rosé wine
  • 2 1/2 cups powdered sugar

Directions

Step 1 -Coat a 12x18-inch half sheet pan with nonstick baking spray.
