Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare egg-shaped molds by coating them with non-stick spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, sugar, and baking powder until evenly combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, cream together softened butter and eggs until pale and fluffy. Stir in the milk until smooth.
  4. Gently fold the wet mixture into the dry ingredients until just combined; avoid overmixing.
  5. Spoon half of the cake batter into prepared molds, top with a dollop of strawberries, and cover with remaining batter.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until golden and a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool for about 10 minutes in molds.
  7. Whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form while the bombs cool on a wire rack.
  8. Carefully remove cooled bombs from molds, and top with whipped cream and additional strawberries.
  9. Optional: Dip the tops in melted chocolate for added crunch and sweetness before serving.
