Strawberry(Jam) Cake

I always wanted to make one pink cake, what flavor would be a better match for pink colour?!! Yes..it is strawberry. So now that I have made jam, why not using the freshness of real strawberries and make a pink cake. The natural colour of strawberries will be blanched when added with flour. So I purposely added few drops of pink colour. So here is my long awaited pink cake..

INGREDIENTS:
Makes about:8 pieces
1/2 cup Strawberry Jam
2 tablespoons Sugar
1/4 cup Oil
1/2 cup Curd

1 cup All Purpose Flour
1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda
1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder

4 drops of pink food colour

PROCEDURE:
1. Preheat the oven to 350F for 10 mins.
2. Dry ingredients mixture:
Sieve together the flour, baking soda and baking powder.
3. Wet ingredients mixture:
Mix well Strawberry jam,curd,oil, and sugar.
4. Pour dry ingredients mixture slowly to wet ingredients mixture and give
it a mix.
5. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared tin and bake it for 40 minutes. A skewer inserted in the middle of the cake will come out clean.6. Let it cool down completely before slicing.

NOTE:
1. The natural strawberries could not give much flavour to the cake.. Add the artificial essence to enhance the flavour.
