Ingredients

Scale

15.25 ounces white cake mix
0.3 ounces sugar-free strawberry Jell-O (1 package)
4 egg whites
⅓ cup canola oil
1 cup frozen unsweetened strawberries (thawed)
½ cup water
⅓ cup butter (softened)
2 ⅓ cups powdered sugar

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round pans.
In a large bowl, mix the white cake mix and strawberry Jell-O until blended. Add egg whites and canola oil; beat until well combined.
Mash thawed strawberries in a small bowl, reserving some for frosting. Incorporate the remaining strawberries and water into the batter.
Pour batter into prepared pans and bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool for about 10 minutes before transferring to wire racks.
For frosting, combine softened butter with reserved mashed strawberries, then gradually beat in powdered sugar until fluffy.
Assemble by layering the cooled cakes with frosting in between and on top.
