Step 1: 

Set the oven to 350 degree F for preheating option. Grease three the pans with butter. They can be 9-inch round or 8-inch square shape of your choice. Cover the bottom of the pan with cookie sheet. Lightly butter the sheets too.

Increase the speed to medium and mix until it turns foamy. Beat for 2 to 3 minutes. The batter will be smoother and get a look like strawberry ice cream. 

Step 3: 

Take a separate large bowl. Bring the egg whites, milk and red cake color together in the bow. Now with a hand whisk, beat well.  Gradually, pour the egg whites into the flower butter mixer in small portion.

Using a spatula scrape down the batter from the sides of the mixing bowl each time you mix the egg whites. Take the already prepared baking pans. Portion the batter into those three different pans evenly. 

Step 4: 

Now let the cakes to bake for 32 to 34 minutes. Check the cake with a wooden tooth pick or a fork. If the tooth pick comes clean at the middle, the cake is ready for taking out the oven

Let it stay in the pans for 10 to 15 minutes. Now take out the cakes and keep on a cooling rack after peeling off the cookie sheet.

Wait another 10 to 15 minutes for cooling off completely. Flip them and wait at least an hour before frosting. You can keep the cakes’ layers in the fridge covering with cling wrap if don’t want to frost them immediately.

Preparing the Cream Cheese Frosting:

Step 5: 

Take butter and cream cheese in a medium sized bowl. Now, beat to get a creamy texture. Pour vanilla for flavor. Now, slowly blend the powdered sugar. Mix well that the sugar completely blends into the cream.

Making Layers of Cake and Cream:

Step 6: 

Paste some cream on a cake board that the first cake layer sticks well on the base. Stack the cakes on each other with even and thick layers of cream frosting. Cover the cakes sides with more cream frosting.

Cover the top and smoothen the top. Keep some frosting separate if you want to decorate with piping some flowers on it. You can also, decorate the cake with thinly sliced strawberries for a healthier choice.
