Ingredients
•

1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
•
1/4 teaspoon salt
•
1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
•
1/2 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
•
1 large egg
•
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

•
1 tablespoon white sugar

Directions
1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a round cake pan.
2
Stir flour, baking powder, and salt together in a small bowl with a wooden spoon.
3
Beat brown sugar and butter together with an electric mixer for about 3 minutes. Add egg and vanilla; mix until blended. Add dry ingredients until completely mixed. Stir in chocolate chips with a wooden spoon. Scrape the dough into the prepared cake pan.
4
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean with just a few crumbs on it, about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and place on a cooling rack for 10 to 15 minutes.
5
Whip the chilled cream with an electric mixer on low speed until thick. Mix in sugar and vanilla.
6
Spread whipped cream on top of the cake and add strawberries.
