Cake:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line three 9 inch cake pans with parchment paper; spray with non-stick cooking spray. (Preferably the baking non-stick cooking spray that contains flour). Set aside.
In a large bowl, mix all cake ingredients with an electric mixer on low, until just combined. Scrape the side of the bowl; increase speed to medium; beat for 3 minutes.
Pour cake batter into the prepared pans. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean, about 23 minutes.
Remove from oven; cool cake in pans on rack for about 10 minutes. Remove from pans; cool completely.
*If using the following recipe for Strawberry Buttercream, refrigerate cakes until completely chilled.
Meanwhile, make Strawberry Buttercream Frosting:
In a large bowl, beat the butter at medium until pale yellow and fluffy. Add powdered sugar and strawberries; beat on low speed until well combined and creamy. Place in the refrigerator for about 5-10 minutes, to firm it up slightly, so that it won't be runny.
Spread one of the cake layers with frosting; refrigerate. Frost a second layer; refrigerate until the frosting on both layers has firmed up a bit. Assemble all the layers; frost the top and sides. Refrigerate.
Serve garnished with more strawberries and mint, if desired.
