Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Beat eggs + sugar in a mixer for 5-7 minutes until slightly thickened and light in color. Mixture should almost double in size. Eggs work as a leavening agent, so do not skip this step. This mixture should form a ribbon when you lift the beaters out of the bowl.
Add the butter and vanilla; mix two more minutes.
Stir in the flour until just combined.
Add the strawberries and mix.
Spread in a buttered 9×13 pan.
Bake for 40-50 minutes on 350 degrees, or until very lightly browned and a toothpick inserted near the center of the cake comes out clean.
Let cool completely & cut into small pieces.
For special occasions or parties, cut into bars and top with whipped topping and a whole strawberry, or serve in a martini glass!
