Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups fresh strawberries, sliced

  • ¾ cup granulated sugar

  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • ¼ cup heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix melted butter and sugar until combined. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  3. In another bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add dry mixture to wet ingredients until just combined.
  4. Spread half of the batter evenly in the prepared baking pan as the base layer.

  6. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown; cool completely before slicing into bars.
