Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease two round cake pans and dust with flour.

In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.

In a large bowl, cream together softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in vanilla extract.

Gradually combine dry ingredients with the wet mixture, alternating with milk until just mixed.

Gently fold in sliced strawberries into the batter.

Divide batter evenly between prepared pans and bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Allow cakes to cool for 10 minutes before transferring to wire racks. Once cool, frost as desired.
