Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Strawberries
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 store-bought or homemade Angel food cake
- 2 cups Heavy whipping cream
- 3 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 4 ounces Cream cheese
Instructions
Wash and hull the strawberries. Slice 3 cups of the strawberries into thin slices and place them in a medium-sized bowl. Reserve the remaining 1 cup for garnish.
Sprinkle the granulated sugar over the sliced strawberries and gently toss to coat. Set aside for at least 15 minutes to macerate and release their juices.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, whip the cream until stiff peaks form.
In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese until fully incorporated and creamy.
Cut the angel food cake into 1-inch cubes. Layer one-third of the cubes in the base of a trifle dish or a large glass bowl.
Spoon one-third of the macerated strawberries, along with some of their juice, over the cake layer. Then dollop one-third of the cream mixture on top, spreading it evenly.
Repeat the process with two more layers of angel food cake, strawberries, and cream, finishing with a smooth layer of cream on top.
Slice the reserved 1 cup of strawberries and use them to beautifully garnish the top layer. You can arrange them in a decorative pattern or scatter them randomly.
Chill the dessert in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set.
Serve chilled and enjoy this refreshing, light, and flavorful dessert!
