Rinse the fresh strawberries thoroughly under cold water, pat dry with a paper towel, and hull them by removing the green tops. Slice the strawberries into small, bite-sized pieces and place them in a bowl.
Sprinkle the granulated sugar over the strawberries, toss to coat evenly, and let them sit for 10 minutes to macerate and release their natural juices.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and milk until smooth and thickened, about 2 minutes.
Gently fold in the Cool Whip (whipped topping) into the pudding mixture using a spatula until fully incorporated and fluffy.
Cut the angel food cake into bite-sized cubes, approximately 1-inch in size, and set aside.
In a large serving bowl or trifle dish, layer the dessert by starting with a layer of angel food cake cubes at the bottom.
Spread a generous layer of the pudding and whipped topping mixture over the cake cubes, followed by a layer of macerated strawberries with some of their syrupy juices.
Repeat the layers (cake, pudding mixture, strawberries) until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of strawberries on top for presentation.
Cover the serving dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to chill.
Garnish with additional strawberry slices or a dollop of whipped cream just before serving, if desired. Serve cold and enjoy!
