Strawberry Topping For Angel Food Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Mash strawberries; set aside. In a small saucepan, combine the sugar, cornstarch and water until smooth. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. , Stir in strawberries; remove from the heat. Stir in lemon juice. Transfer to a small bowl. Refrigerate until chilled.

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:

• Put 2 cups of miniature marshmallows in a bowl. Lay frozen strawberries on top of marshmallows. Cover and set in the refrigerator overnight. Just before serving, stir in cool-whip. Place a serving of topping over a slice of angel food cake or if you prefer, pound cake.

Steps:

• Wash strawberries and remove stems; cut large berries in half or roughly chop them.
• Combine strawberries, sugar, and vanilla in a saucepan. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. The mixture will sizzle for a while, but then juice will begin to form. Continue stirring; mash a few strawberries with a wooden spoon or heat-proof spatula to help produce the syrup. Cook until sauce thickens, about 15 minutes.
• Remove from heat. In a blender, puree about 1/3 of the sauce, then mix back into remaining topping. Store in refrigerator.

Steps:

• Crumble the cake into a 9x13 inch dish.
• Beat the cream cheese and sugar in a medium bowl until light and fluffy. Fold in whipped topping. Mash the cake down with your hands and spread the cream cheese mixture over the cake.
• In a bowl, combine strawberries and glaze until strawberries are evenly coated. Spread over cream cheese layer. Chill until serving.

Steps:

• Place cake on serving plate. Cut 3/4-inch-thick horizontal slice from top of cake; set aside. With small knife, cut 1-inch-wide and 1-inch-deep tunnel inside center of cake, being careful to not cut through to bottom or sides of cake. Remove and save cutout for snacking or other use.
• Add boiling water to gelatin mix in medium bowl; stir 2 min. until completely dissolved. Add enough cold water to ice to measure 3/4 cup; stir into gelatin until ice is completely melted. Remove 1/2 cup gelatin; place in separate medium bowl. Add COOL WHIP; whisk until blended. Refrigerate 10 to 15 min. or until thick enough to spread. Meanwhile, refrigerate remaining plain gelatin 5 to 10 min. or until thickened.
• Stir 3/4 cup strawberries into thickened plain gelatin; spoon into tunnel of cake. Replace top of cake. Frost cake with COOL WHIP mixture. Garnish with remaining strawberries before serving.

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.
