Ingredients

2 lb fresh strawberries
2 packages (1 1/5 oz) freeze-dried strawberries
1 cup all purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp kosher salt
6 large eggs
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 cans (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
1 cans (12 oz) evaporated milk
1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream

Steps

Heat the oven to 350 F, grease a 9-by-13-inch pan with oil, and crush the freeze-dried strawberries.
Whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl, then beat the eggs, sugar, and vanilla in another bowl until thick and pale.
Fold the dry mixture into the egg mixture, spread the batter in the pan, and bake for 25 to 30 minutes until firm.
Cool the cake for 20 minutes, then poke holes across its surface with a fork.
Whisk the condensed milk, evaporated milk, and 1/2 cup heavy cream, pour the mixture over the cake, and chill for 3 hours.
Whip the remaining heavy cream until firm peaks form, spread it over the chilled cake, and top it with sliced strawberries and crushed freeze-dried strawberries.
