  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
     3/4         pound  butter -- softened
     1/2         pound  cream cheese -- softened
  2               cups  sugar
  1              pinch  salt
  2          teaspoons  butter flavoring
  6                     eggs -- room temperature
  3               cups  sifted flour
  1               pint  fresh strawberries --
  1                     sliced

Preparation:

Cream the cheese, butter, and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add a pinch of salt and the butter flavoring, and beat the mixture well. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating thoroughly after each addition. Stir in the flour. Gradually add the sliced strawberries, gently folding them in after each addition. Spoon the batter into a buttered and floured cake pan (I use loaf pans or those nice little mini-loaf sizes for gift-giving), and bake the cake in a preheated 325-degree (F) oven for one-and-a-half hours, until the cake begins to shrink from the sides of the pan. Place the pans on cooling racks until cooled; turn cakes gently onto wire racks.
