  2. 2 Beat cake mix, eggs, milk, and butter until well combined. Pour into the prepared pan.

  5. 5 Microwave strawberry jam for 1 minute. Stir and continue microwaving in 15-second intervals until jam is melted and pourable. Pour jam into the holes and let cake sit in the pan for at least 1 hour.
  6. 6 Run a table knife around the inner and outer edges of the pan to loosen. Invert cake carefully onto a serving plate.
  7. 7 Mix powdered sugar and milk together until well combined. Brush glaze over the cake and let sit overnight so flavors can meld.
