1. Preheat the oven to 350F/177C. Line three, 8-inch cake pans with parchment paper. Using stand mixer, hand mixer or whisk, combine the liquid ingredients in a large mixing bowl: eggs, oil, milk, vanilla and sugar. Whisk on high speed for 2 to 3 minutes, until the eggs are well beaten. In a separate bowl, combine the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, soda and salt. Sift the dry ingredients into the cake batter, then mix on low speed for 1 minute, just until the flour is incorporated.
2. Divide the batter evenly into three three portions - two portions into separate bowls and the third portion can be added directly into one of the prepared cake pans (vanilla flavor). For the strawberry flavor, add in the 1/3 cup (70 ml) strawberry preserves, strawberry extract and a few drops of red or pink food coloring. Whisk for about 30 seconds, just until well incorporated. For the chocolate flavor, add in the cocoa powder and melted chocolate chips and stir for about 30 seconds, just until well incorporated. Watch my video recipe to see how I do it.
3. Transfer the prepared chocolate and strawberry cake batters into the remaining prepared cake pans. Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean; the chocolate cake may take a few minutes extra. Remove the cake layers from the oven when done and cool in the pans for 20 minutes, then on a wire rack until completely cooled. Once cooled, use a long serrated knife to level the tops of the cake layers, if needed.
4. Once the cake layers have cooled completely, prepare the strawberry buttercream. Place the softened butter into a large mixing bowl and whisk on high speed for 7 to 9 minutes until the butter is light and fluffy. Stop and scrape down the sides of the mixing bowl often to ensure all the butter is mixed well. Next, add the confectioner's sugar - adding more sugar will make the frosting thicker and fluffier but sweeter. Mix in the confectioner's sugar on low speed first, then on high speed for 2 to 3 minutes, until the frosting is fluffy.
