Ingredients

  • 1 box angel food cake
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 1/4 cup sugar or more if desired
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 1 lb strawberries

Instructions

  1. Prepare angel food cake according to boxed instructions.  You can make one big cake, cupcakes, or small cakes.  (Cupcakes or small cakes will take less baking time.)  

  2. While the cake is baking, place your heavy whipping cream in the bowl of a stand mixer or large bowl and use a hand mixer.  Whip continuously on medium speed for 3 minutes.  Add sugar and vanilla.  Whip until soft peaks form.  At this point, I like to taste to make sure that I am happy with the amount of sugar.  Add more if desired.  Continue to whip until stiff peaks form and then cover and refrigerate.

  3. Once the angel food cake is cooled, pipe the whipped topping on each cake.  

  4. Finish off by topping with whole strawberries, pieces, or slices.  Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate until serving.
