["To make the cake:", "1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees centigrade.", "2. Soften the butter, then beat in the caster sugar.", "3. Beat the eggs, and stir them into the butter/sugar mixture. Don't worry if it look a little curdled.", "4. Fold the flour and baking powder into the mixture.", "5. Roughly chop the strawberries, and fold them in as well.", "6. Pour the batter into 2 prepared sandwich tins (about 7"" in diameter), and bake for half an hour.", "To ice the cake:", "1. Soften the butter, and beat in the icing sugar. You can sieve it if you want to. Add a dash of milk to make it more spreadable.", "2. Spread half of the buttercream onto one of the cakes (and make sure the cake is completley cool).", "3. Spread a layer of jam on top of the icing, then put the other cake on top of that.", "4. Push 2 strawberries through a sieve into the remaining buttercream, then beat together.
