For an extra burst of flavor, consider adding a layer of fresh strawberry slices between the cake layers. Ensure the butter is fully melted for a smoother frosting consistency. If you don't have fresh strawberries, frozen strawberries that have been thawed and drained work well. For a more intense strawberry flavor, you can substitute strawberry extract for vanilla in the frosting.
