Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare three round cake pans with grease or parchment paper.
In one bowl, mix together flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
In another bowl, whisk eggs, milk, and vanilla until smooth; gradually combine with dry ingredients.
Divide batter into three portions: mix one with melted chocolate, one with strawberry puree, and leave one as vanilla.
Pour each batter into prepared pans and bake for 25–30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool completely.
Assemble layers with cream cheese frosting between each layer and cover the entire cake.
