Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. Combine the white cake mix, whole milk, melted butter, and egg whites in a large mixing bowl. Mix on medium speed for 2-3 minutes until smooth.
  3. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and bake for 30-35 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.
  4. Allow the cake to cool completely in the pan for about an hour.
  5. Whisk together the evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, and half and half. Poke holes in the cooled cake and pour the filling over, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
  6. Beat heavy whipping cream until soft peaks form, then gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla until stiff peaks form.
  7. Spread the whipped cream over the top of the cake and top with sliced fresh strawberries before serving.
