Anns Strawberry Angel Food Cake Recipes

Steps:

• First, let the strawberries and Cool Whip rest on the counter. The strawberries will mix with the Jell-o better if they're not rock hard, and the Cool Whip will incorporate better if it's a little soft.
• Slice the angel food cake into 1/2 to 1-inch pieces using a serrated knife, and spread half of the angel food cake pieces on the bottom of the 9×13 inch dish. (Or a fun glass dish like a trifle bowl.)
• Bring two cups of water to a boil. In a large mixing bowl, combine the water and Jell-o powder. Stir until fully combined.
• Then, add the frozen strawberries and stir, breaking up the chunks until they have melted. Fold the Cool Whip a few dollops at a time into the strawberry mixture, stirring gently to combine without deflating the dessert. Again, you can leave it a little less than uniformly combined, but you want it well-mixed.
• Spread half the mixture over the cake. Add the remaining cake, then cover with the remaining mix. Spread to ensure the cake is fully covered.
• Alternatively, you can combine all the cake and mix in a large bowl. You may prefer this method if you're serving the dessert in a trifle or glass bowl.
• Chill in the fridge four hours or overnight. If the cake feels wet or jiggles, it's not set.
• To glam it up, you can cover the chilled cake with Cool Whip, or garnish or decorate the top with sliced strawberries.

Steps:

• Combine strawberries and 1/4 cup sugar in a small bowl; cover and let stand 1 hour. Combine 1/2 cup sugar, milk, and cream cheese in a medium bowl; beat at medium speed of mixer til smooth.
• Cut cake horizontally into 3 layers using a serrated knife; place bottom layer, cut side up, on a serving plate. Brush with 1 tbsp liqueur (or orange juice), and spread half of cream cheese mixture over cake. Spoon one third of strawberries over cream cheese mixture using a slotted spoon. Repeat layers, ending with cake and liqueur (or orange juice). Spread whipped cream over top and sides of cake. Cover; chill 30 minutes.
• Arrange remaining strawberries on top of cake. Sprinkle with almonds, and serve.

Steps:

• Drain strawberries, reserving 1/3 cup of syrup.
• Split cake horizontally into two layers.
• Place bottom layer on serving plate and spoon strawberries over it.
• Spread with 3 1/4 cups of whipped topping.
• Replace top layer and drizzle with reserved syrup, allowing it to run down outer side of cake.
• Garnish with remaining whipped topping and fresh strawberries.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F
• Sift together flour and 1/2 cup sugar into a large bowl. Set aside.
• In another bowl, beat egg whites until foamy. Add cream of tartar; continue beatin until soft peaks form. Add remaining 1/2 cup sugar, 2 Tbsp at a time, beating until stiff peaks form. Fold in flour-sugar mixture, 1/2 cup at a time. Fold in vanilla and strawberries.
• Pour batter into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan, spreading evenly and deflating any large air pockets with a knife. Bake 40 minutes, or until cake is lightly browned and springy. Invert pan and let cake cool 40 minutes.
• Remove cake from pan and set on a serving plate.
