INSTRUCTIONS

Cream Cheese Frosting
1. In a medium bowl or the bowl of a standing mixer, add the cream cheese and butter and beat until fully combined. Add salt and vanilla extract.
2. Add in the cornstarch (if using) and powdered sugar slowly until the desired consistency is reach. Start with the lower amount of powdered sugar and add more as needed.
3. Cover the bowl of frosting and place it in the fridge to firm up while you make the cake.

Chocolate Cake
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and prepare one 8 inch square baking pan. Spray the inside with cooking spray, then cut a square piece of parchment paper so that it fits in the bottom of the pan (do not skip the parchment paper lining!)
2. Whisk flour, cocoa powder, sugar, salt, baking powder, baking soda together in a large bowl.
3. Add in the eggs, vanilla, oil, and milk. Pour in the hot water and mix until smooth.
4. Pour the batter into the cake pan and bake on the middle rack of the oven for 30-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean.
5. Let the cake cool in the pan for 20 minutes, then run a butter knife around the outside of the cake to loosen it from the pan and flip upside down onto a cooling rack to cool completely.

Assembling the Cake
1. Once the cake has cooled completely, drop scoops of strawberry jam onto the cake and spread it out evenly.
2. Scoop spoonfuls of cream cheese frosting over top of the jam layer and use a spoon or offset spatula to spread the frosting around. The jam will be mixed in and you can even add more jam on top to make it pretty! Sliced strawberries also would be great to decorate if desired!
