1. Preheat the oven to 350° F. Butter and flour a 9 x 13-inch baking pan; set aside.

Add the vanilla and scrape down the sides of the bowl and continue beating. Add flour mixture in portions still beating on medium speed. Beat in half of the milk-egg mixture, then beat in half of the remaining dry ingredients until incorporated. Add the rest of the milk-egg mixture, beating until the batter one. Add the last of the dry ingredients.
4. Beat batter for 2 minutes to ensure that it is thoroughly mixed and well aerated. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top with a rubber spatula.
5. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cake cool completely in pan on a wire rack, at least one hour.
6. Once cake has cooled, in a small saucepan on medium heat, boil 1 cup water then pour jello packet in a stir until dissolved. Stir in water. Stir in ice cream.
7. Using a wooden spoon or pen, poke holes into cake and pour jello mixture into the holes. Refrigerate for 3 hours. 7. In a bowl fitted with a mixer, whip heavy cream until it peaks. Add powdered sugar. If using pre-made whipped topping, beat powdered sugar and whipped cream on low speed for 1 minute. Spread topping evenly over cake and place sliced strawberries on top.
