Family-Size Strawberry Shortcake

1 pack (18.25 oz) White cake mix
1 1/2 quarts Fresh strawberries
1/4 cup Granulated sugar
1 1/2 cups Whipping cream
1 Tsp Vanilla extract
1/4 cup Sugar
Makes 8-10 servings
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare cake according to the package directions. Grease and flour two 9-inch cake pans; pour batter into pans. Bake cakes until toothpick inserted in the centers comes out clean; about 25 minutes. Cool completely on wire racks.
Reserve 8-10 large strawberries for garnish. Slice remaining strawberries; place in a medium bowl, sprinkle with granulated sugar. Mash slightly with potato masher. Chill until ready to assemble the cake, at least 30 minutes.
Beat whipping cream in a medium bowl until stiff peaks form. Add sugar and vanilla, continue beating just until mixed. Place 1 cake layer on a serving plate. Cover with mashed strawberries, top with about 1 1/2 cups whipped cream. Place second cake layer on top. Spread with remaining whipped cream, garnish with reserved strawberries.
Enjoy!!!
