HAS ANYONE MADE THE STRAWBERRY FILLING FROM THE RECIPE SECTION? DO I NEED TO PUT A LAYER OF BC FIRST, SO THE STRAWBERRY FILLING DOESN'T SOAK INTO THE CAKE? OR IS IT THICK ENOUGH TO JUST SIT THERE....

TIA!!

I haven't tried the Strawberry Filling Recipe on this site, but I have a recipe for one that you use Seedless Strawberry Preserves, Cream Cheese and Cool Whip. It is very good. After you combine all ingredients you let it refrigerate for about 30 minutes and it is thick enough that it does not soak into the cake.

Becareful if you leave it out and it is a little humid or warm your cakes will bulge even with a thick layer of bc as a dam. I left mine out for 2 hours and it started to bulge but stuck it back in the fridge and it was fine.

Someone of CC suggested mixing strawberry jam with your buttercream. It was really good!

Here's the recipe for Strawberry Filling:
8 oz. Cream Cheese
15 oz. Seedless Strawberry Preserves
8 oz. Cool Whip

In mixer, blend cream cheese on medium until soft (about 2 min). Add preserves and mix until combined. Add cool whip until combined. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to set then spread between cake layers.

My recipe doesn't specify how long it can be left out, but I made a cake Monday using this filling, it was out for about 2-3 hours during a meeting and was fine. But I did put the left-over cake in the refrigerator just to be safe. Hope this helps.
