Directions
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×13-inch baking pan.
2. **Make the Cake**: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, followed by vanilla, mixing well. Alternate adding the dry ingredients and milk with the strawberry puree, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Spread batter into the prepared pan.
3. **Make the Cheesecake Layer**: In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, followed by vanilla. Spread the cheesecake mixture evenly over the cake batter.
4. **Make the Crumble**: In a small bowl, mix flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and cinnamon. Stir in melted butter until crumbly. Sprinkle over the cheesecake layer.
5. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the crumble topping is golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool completely.
6. **Make the Strawberry Drizzle**: Heat strawberry preserves and water in a small saucepan over medium heat until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled cake before serving.
