Ingredients

• 1 baked angel food cake (I use a boxed mix for mine)
• 2 (8oz/250g) packages cream cheese, softened
• 1 large (16oz tub) frozen whipped topping, thawed
• 2 cups powdered sugar
• 1 quart strawberries, thinly sliced
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1 (14oz tub) strawberry glaze

Instructions

1. In a small bowl, stir sliced strawberries and 1/2 cup sugar together. Chill in the refrigerator for at least one hour.
2. After strawberries have chilled and made some juice, stir in strawberry glaze.
3. In a mixer, beat softened cream cheese, frozen whipped topping and powdered sugar together until creamy.
4. Spread cream mixture in a 9×13 dish. Cut angel food cake into small, 1-inch pieces and place the cake on top of cream mixture.
5. Gently push some of the cake pieces into the cream.
6. Top with strawberry mixture. Chill in the refrigerator.

Notes

I reserve approximately 1/2 cup of the cream mixture to pipe on top of the dessert for decoration. Can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
