Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 11x7-inch baking pan with cooking spray. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a large bowl, beat eggs with an electric mixer until frothy. Gradually add sugar and continue beating until thick and creamy, about 4-5 minutes. Stir in 1/4 cup of the liqueur and vanilla extract. (7 minutes)

03

Step

In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. Pour batter into the prepared baking pan. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Bake in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from oven and let cool completely in the pan, about 1 hour. (85 minutes)

05

Step

In a mixing bowl, combine sweetened condensed milk and remaining 1.5 cups liqueur. Stir until well combined. Use a skewer or toothpick to poke holes all over the surface of the cooled cake. Slowly pour the condensed milk mixture over the cake, allowing it to soak into the holes. (10 minutes)

06

Step

Cover the cake with aluminum foil and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the sauce to fully absorb. (120 minutes)

07

Step

In a chilled bowl, beat heavy cream with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Gradually add confectioners' sugar and strawberry gelatin mix, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form. (8 minutes)

08

Step

To serve, spread the whipped cream topping evenly over the cake. Garnish with sliced fresh strawberries. (5 minutes)

For best results, use room temperature eggs for a lighter and fluffier cake.
Chilling the mixing bowl before whipping the cream will help it whip up faster and hold its shape better.
If you don't have strawberry gelatin, you can substitute with vanilla or even a complimentary flavor like raspberry or cherry.
Feel free to adjust the amount of Baileys to your preference. For a less boozy cake, reduce the amount slightly.
