Jordgubbstårta

This is the kind of Scandinavian snack you’ll make on repeat — sponge cake and strawberries, 90 minutes, big payoff. At 708 calories and 7g protein per serving, it fits easily into a high-protein day. Simple enough for a Tuesday, good enough to serve to guests — that is the whole idea.

Ingredients

• 1 lb Sponge cake
• 2 lb Strawberries
• 2.5 cups Heavy cream
• 1/3 cup Sugar
• 1 tsp Vanilla
• 1/3 cup Strawberry jam

Steps

1. Macerate half the sliced strawberries with sugar 20 minutes until syrupy.
2. Split the sponge, spread with jam, and layer with the macerated berries and whipped cream.
3. Frost the whole cake with the remaining cream in swoops and swirls.
4. Crown with the reserved whole berries, points up, in tight concentric rings.
5. Chill 2 hours; midsummer's cake, best eaten outdoors at midnight sun.
