     This Vegan Strawberry Shortcake is straight out of my childhood. When   
     I was little, my mother used to buy me a strawberries and cream   
     birthday cake from a famous Chicago bakery, Lutz.   
      
     Preheat oven to 350?F. Spray cake pan (I used a square 9x9" brownie   
     pan) with cooking spray.   
      
     Add vinegar to 1 cup plant milk and set aside.   
      
     Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to a large bowl.   
     Whisk together ingredients to remove clumps.   
      
     Using stand mixer on medium low (with whisk attachment) or hand mixer,   
     whisk butter, vegan sour cream, and sugar until fluffy. Next add   
     plant milk + vinegar mixture and vanilla and almond extract.   
      
     In two parts, add flour mixture and mix until fully incorporated.   
      
     Pour patter into greased baking pan and place in the center rack of   
     preheated oven for ~18 to 20 minutes, or until toothpick comes out   
     clean.   
      
     While cake is baking, make pudding following instructions on the box   
     but with half the amount of plant milk (e.g., if the instructions   
     require 2 cups of milk, use only 1 cup of milk).   
      
     Once pudding is thick and creamy, fold in vegan shipping cream and mix   
     until fully incorporated. Set aside in fridge.   
      
     Next, make strawberry layer. Start by making slurry, but adding 1 tb   
     of potato starch to 4 tb water. Stir together until starch dissolves.   
      
     In a small pot, add strawberries, together with balsamic vinegar,   
     orange juice, and sweetener over medium-low heat, stirring frequently   
     until strawberries soften (3 to 4 minutes).   
      
     Remove from heat altogether. Add slurry and begin stirring   
     immediately to create sauce. Place in fridge to cool, while cake   
     continues to bake.   
      
     When cake is done, set aside and allow it to cool for ~15 minutes.   
      
     When cake and strawberry filling are both cooled, add a layer of   
     wafers/cookies over the top of the cake.   
      
     Next, top the cookie layer with pudding/cream layer.   
      
     Next, top the pudding/cream layer with the strawberries.   
      
     Add another layer of cookies.   
      
     Top the cake one final time with pudding/cream layer.   
      
     Place in fridge for at least 4 hours before serving. Best served one   
     day after.
