- Add about a third of the dry mixture to the sugar mixture, beat it thoroughly with the mixer, then add half the milk. Beat it again. Add another third of the dry mixture, beat it, add the rest of the milk, beat it again, and finally beat in the rest of the dry mixture.
- Stir in the teaspoon and a half of vanilla and 1/2 cup of the strawberry puree.
- In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until they be to firm up a bit. Carefully fold this into the batter.
