You’ll love how the sweet, tart, and buttery flavor combination keeps the dessert from being overly sweet.

The flavors are great, but so are the textures! The cookies are so crumbly, they melt in your mouth.

While other recipes use fresh or frozen strawberries to make a sheet cake, this one calls for strawberry jam.

It has just the right amount of sweetness and consistency.

5. Strawberry Jam Cake
