Take 100 grams of room temperature softened butter or margarine into a mixing bowl.

Add 1 cup of powdered sugar, leaving about a finger's width from the top, and mix until creamy.

Add 2 eggs and 1 packet of vanilla, then whisk with a mixer for a few minutes.

Add 1.5 cups of flour and 1 packet of baking powder, and mix with a spatula.

Set aside about a tablespoon of the cake batter, then adjust to about a teaspoon if preferred.

Prepare a 28 cm diameter springform pan by covering the bottom with parchment paper.

Spread the batter evenly over the bottom of the pan.

Clean and wash about 8-10 strawberries and cut them in half.

Place the strawberries on the cake batter and press them lightly.

Add a bit of flour to the reserved batter and mix to make crumbs.

Sprinkle the prepared dough crumbs over the cake and add slivered almonds.

Bake in a preheated oven at 170 degrees Celsius for about 35 minutes.

Take the baked cake out of the oven and let it cool before placing it on a serving plate.

Remove the parchment paper from the bottom and sprinkle a bit of powdered sugar on top before serving.
