Ingredients
Strawberry Mixture
- 2 cups sliced strawberries
- 1/2 cup sugar
Cake Batter
- 1 box cake mix (vanilla or yellow cake mix recommended)
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
Instructions
- Prepare the Strawberries: In a medium bowl, combine the sliced strawberries with the sugar. Stir gently to evenly coat the strawberries. Transfer this mixture to the crockpot and spread it out evenly.
- Make the Cake Batter: In a separate bowl, mix together the cake mix, milk, and melted butter until fully combined. The batter will be somewhat thick but pourable.
- Layer the Cake Batter: Pour the cake batter evenly over the strawberry mixture in the crockpot, covering the strawberries completely.
- Cook in the Crockpot: Cover the crockpot with its lid and cook on low heat for 4 hours. Avoid opening the lid frequently to maintain consistent heat and moisture.
- Serve: Once cooked and the cake has set, serve warm by scooping portions onto plates and topping with whipped cream if desired.
Notes
- Use fresh or frozen strawberries; if using frozen, thaw and drain excess liquid before mixing with sugar.
- Do not open the crockpot frequently during cooking to ensure even baking.
- For added flavor, you can add a splash of vanilla extract to the cake batter.
- Whipped cream or vanilla ice cream pairs wonderfully with this strawberry shortcake.
- If your crockpot cooks hotter, check doneness slightly earlier to prevent overcooking.
