Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch cake pan or line with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
Add dry ingredients to the wet mixture alternately with milk, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Mix until just combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
Top with sliced strawberries and gently press them into the batter.
Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool completely before topping with whipped cream.
Serve and enjoy with your loved ones on Mother’s Day!

You can substitute strawberries with other fresh berries like blueberries or raspberries.
For a richer flavor, add a tablespoon of lemon zest to the batter.
This dessert pairs wonderfully with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
