Angel Food Cake With Strawberry Buttercream Recipes

LAYERED STRAWBERRY ANGEL FOOD CAKE

Steps:

• Prep Angel Food Cake
• Tear up into bite sized pieces - not super large but also not too small. Place in bowl or on plate and set aside.
• Prep Strawberries
• Once strawberries are washed, quartered and placed in a bowl, add 3/4th cup Strawberry PRESERVES (not jelly) to bowl and mix.
• Make sure all strawberries are lightly covered in preserves.
• Prep Whipped Cream
• Add 16 oz thawed whipped cream, 1 block of softened cream cheese, and 14 oz of sweetened condensed milk into a bowl and mix until creamy.
• Layered Strawberry Angel Food
• Once all three layers are prepped, its time to assemble! Take a large casserole style baking dish and add half of the angel food cake chunks on the bottom of the dish.
• Smother with half the strawberries.
• For the last layer, add half of the whipped cream mixture and smooth with a spatula.
• Now repeat the process with angel food cake, strawberries, and whipped cream mixture.
• Feel free to add one last layer of decorative strawberries if you like and want it to look fancy.
• Simply use a large serving spoon to scoop out Strawberry Angel Food Cake!
