Strawberry Sandwich Cake

(From Banu's Cookbook)

Ingredients:

Basic Cake baked in 2 - 8" or 9" round cake pans and cooled. See the recipe here
Fresh Strawberries - 1 Pint
Sugar - 1 Cup (or more if the strawberries are sour)
Optional - Whipped cream - for decorated - thawed to room temperature

Method:
1) Take a cake plate or any other plate and place the first round white cake on it.
2) Mix the strawberries and sugar well.
3) Spread this mixture over the cake. You can put spread a layer of whipped cream on the cake before you spread the strawberry mixture and again after it just to get that white layer.
4) Place the 2nd white cake over this and press very very gently to settle them. Wipe any strawberry mixture that might have oozed out between the cakes.
5) Decorate the top layer with more whipped cream and fresh strawberries cut into pieces.
6) Put this in the fridge for at least 8 hours for the strawberries and the cream to set.
