Ingredients:
- 1 (10-12 ounce) angel food cake, store-bought (280-340g)
- 1 pound fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced (450g)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar (50g)
- 1 (8-ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed (225g)
- Optional: Fresh mint leaves, for garnish
- Optional: 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Optional: A tablespoon of Orange Liqueur
Instructions:
- Hull and slice the strawberries.
- Gently toss the sliced strawberries with the granulated sugar. (Optional: Add teaspoon of vanilla extract or a tablespoon of orange liqueur) Let them sit for 10 minutes to release their juices. For more flavor, simmer the macerated strawberry on low heat to turn into a sauce. Let cool.
- Cut the angel food cake into bite-sized cubes (approximately 1-inch).
- In a serving dish, layer the cake cubes, strawberry mixture (including juices), and whipped topping. Repeat layers as desired.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld (optional, but recommended). Garnish with fresh mint leaves before serving.
