Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a round cake pan.

Step 2

Stir flour, baking powder, and salt together in a small bowl with a wooden spoon.

Step 3

Beat brown sugar and butter together with an electric mixer for about 3 minutes. Add egg and vanilla; mix until blended. Add dry ingredients until completely mixed. Stir in chocolate chips with a wooden spoon. Scrape the dough into the prepared cake pan.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean with just a few crumbs on it, about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and place on a cooling rack for 10 to 15 minutes.

Step 5

Whip the chilled cream with an electric mixer on low speed until thick. Mix in sugar and vanilla.

Spread whipped cream on top of the cake and add strawberries.
