- Add the eggs to the Wolf Gourmet Stand Mixer one at a time, fully incorporating before adding the next egg.
- Add half of the dry ingredients mix while mixing, then half of the buttermilk mixture. Repeat until everything is fully incorporated.
- Pour into the prepared cake pan and bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Once cool, cut into 1 inch cubes.
- In your Wolf Gourmet Stand mixer, whip together all the frosting ingredients until smooth and fluffy.
- Wash and dry the berries. Remove the stem and quarter the strawberries.
- Begin layering your trifle in individual cups or a large bowl, layering the cake, berries, and frosting. Serve and enjoy!
