2. Next, we need to prepare two baking pans, greasing them lightly with a little oil. Divide the dough in half and pour it into the pans. Bake in the oven for about 30 minutes. In this case, the recipe for strawberry-chocolate cake is designed for 2 layers, but you can make more (in which case the layers will be thinner and will bake faster).
