The Ultimate Reese's and Chocolate Strawberry Dream Cake

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.

Prepare Cake Batter:

In a large bowl, mix together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Add eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Beat until well combined.

Stir in boiling water until the batter is smooth. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans.

Bake:

Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool in pans for 10 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.

Prepare Strawberry Filling:

In a saucepan, combine strawberries, sugar, water, and cornstarch. Cook over medium heat until thickened. Let cool.

Make Chocolate Ganache:

In another saucepan, heat heavy cream until steaming. Pour over chocolate chips and let sit for 5 minutes. Stir until smooth.

Assemble the Cake:

Place one chocolate cake layer on a serving plate. Spread a layer of strawberry filling over the top. Place the second cake layer on top and cover the cake with chocolate ganache.
