Easy Strawberries and Cream Cake

Summer is quickly coming to an end, but the heat doesn’t seem to be going away.  This weekend here in San Diego is reach 104 at my house.  Yes, my house where you can see the ocean from my backyard it reach 104!!!

So we needed something refreshing and cool.  What screams summer more than Strawberries and Angel Food Cake?  This is my version, Strawberries and Cream Cake.

Ingredients for the Angel Food Cake

• Betty Crocker Angel Food Cake or your favorite Angel Food Cake recipe.   I wanted to make this as easy as possible. I use two 9 inch square pans to bake the Cake.

Ingredients for the Whipped Cream

• 2 cups Heavy Whipping Cream
• 6 tablespoons Sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
• 1 pint of Strawberries

Cream Frosting

1. Whip Cream, Sugar and Vanilla Extract on high-speed until stiff.

• The more sugar you use the stiffer and longer your icing will last.
• I use a little more than 1 teaspoon of vanilla
• Chill your bowl before whipping and make sure your cream is chilled also.
• Don’t over whip!

Constructing the Cake

1. After the Cake has cooled remove from pans.
2. Liberally spread cream on the first cake and then layer the sliced strawberries.  I over lap my strawberries.
3. Add second cake and spread cream on top.  Add strawberries and any other berries you’d like to add.

Bam!

Strawberry Angel Food Cake!
