Categories     dessert

Time 2h

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

3/4 cup sifted cake flour
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
12 large egg whites, at room temperature
Pinch of salt
1 1/2 teaspoons cream of tartar
3/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
For the strawberries:
3 cups strawberries, sliced
2 tablespoons sugar

Steps:

  • Make the cake: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. On a sheet of waxed paper, sift the cake flour with 3/4 cup of the sugar and the cocoa 4 times.
  • Using an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat the egg whites along with a pinch of salt until foamy, about 3 minutes. Sprinkle the cream of tartar over the egg whites and continue to beat until they hold a soft peak, about 5 minutes. Beating continuously, add the vanilla and gradually stream in the remaining 3/4 cup sugar, about 2 tablespoons at a time, until the egg whites are thick, glossy and stiff.
  • Remove the bowl from the mixer, and using a spatula, gradually fold in the flour mixture, about 1/4 cup at a time, until there are no more pockets of dry ingredients. Spoon the batter into an ungreased 9-inch tube pan. Bake until the cake springs back when pressed with your finger, about 30 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven, invert, and allow the cake to cool on a rack 1 hour before loosening the cake from the pan with a knife and unmolding.
  • Meanwhile, make the strawberries: Sprinkle the sliced strawberries with the sugar. Stir to coat and let stand about 30 minutes to allow the juices to develop. Top each cake slice with strawberries and their juices before serving.

ANGEL FOOD CAKE WITH STRAWBERRIES AND MINT

Categories     dessert

Time 4h10m

Yield Serves 10

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 store-bought angel food cake
16 ounces frozen strawberries, thawed and drained
1 tablespoon fresh mint leaves, finely chopped
1 tablespoon orange liqueur
8 ounces non-dairy whipped topping
1/4 teaspoon orange extract
Fresh mint leaves, for garnish

Steps:

  • Remove angel food cake from container and set on a plate. With a serrated knife, carefully remove the top of the cake by slicing horizontally 1/2-inch down from the top. Set top aside.
  • Hollow out the center of the cake. If cake already has a hollow center ring, make a canal around center hole by carefully cutting and removing a 1-inch deep trench around the entire cake. Be careful not to tear the inside or outside walls. Place the removed pieces of cake in a medium bowl.
  • Pick out 1 strawberry to use as garnish (the best looking one) and set aside. To the bowl with the cake pieces, add the remaining strawberries, chopped mint, orange liqueur, and 1/2 cup of the whipped topping. Fold until combined.
  • Fill cake, both the well and the center, with the strawberry mixture. Replace the top of the cake that had been set aside.
  • To the remaining whipped topping, add a few drops of orange extract and combine thoroughly. This will remove the store-bought taste. Frost the cake with remaining whipped topping and garnish with fresh mint leaves. Top with reserved strawberry.
  • Chill cake for 4 hours before serving.

NO-BAKE STRAWBERRY ANGEL FOOD CAKE WITH WHIPPED CREAM



No-Bake Strawberry Angel Food Cake with Whipped Cream image

Provided by Natalie Clark

Categories     Fruit

Time 4h15m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 13-ounce angel food cake (size may vary from store to store)
1 6-ounce box strawberry Jell-o mix
2 cups water, boiled
1 container Cool Whip
1 16-ounce container frozen strawberries in sugar (or 21 oz strawberry pie filling)

Steps:

  • First, let the strawberries and Cool Whip rest on the counter. The strawberries will mix with the Jell-o better if they're not rock hard, and the Cool Whip will incorporate better if it's a little soft.
  • Slice the angel food cake into 1/2 to 1-inch pieces using a serrated knife, and spread half of the angel food cake pieces on the bottom of the 9×13 inch dish. (Or a fun glass dish like a trifle bowl.)
  • Bring two cups of water to a boil. In a large mixing bowl, combine the water and Jell-o powder. Stir until fully combined.
  • Then, add the frozen strawberries and stir, breaking up the chunks until they have melted. Fold the Cool Whip a few dollops at a time into the strawberry mixture, stirring gently to combine without deflating the dessert. Again, you can leave it a little less than uniformly combined, but you want it well-mixed.
  • Spread half the mixture over the cake. Add the remaining cake, then cover with the remaining mix. Spread to ensure the cake is fully covered.
  • Alternatively, you can combine all the cake and mix in a large bowl. You may prefer this method if you're serving the dessert in a trifle or glass bowl.
  • Chill in the fridge four hours or overnight. If the cake feels wet or jiggles, it's not set.
  • To glam it up, you can cover the chilled cake with Cool Whip, or garnish or decorate the top with sliced strawberries.

Provided by Culinary Envy

Categories     Desserts     Fruit Dessert Recipes     Strawberry Dessert Recipes

Time 1h35m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 ¾ cups white sugar
1 cup cake flour
¼ teaspoon salt
12 egg whites, at room temperature
⅓ cup water
1 ½ teaspoons cream of tartar
1 teaspoon lemon extract
1 ½ (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
¼ cup butter, softened
¼ cup fresh lemon juice
1 (16 ounce) package confectioners' sugar, divided
2 teaspoons lemon zest
¾ cup sliced fresh strawberries
¾ cup fresh blueberries
¾ cup fresh blackberries
¾ cup fresh raspberries
2 tablespoons white sugar
6 fresh strawberries with leaves
12 black sugar pearls (such as Wilton® sprinkles)
1 teaspoon stiff white decorator icing (such Wilton® Bright White), or as needed
2 tablespoons butter, softened

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Place 1 3/4 cups sugar in a food processor and blend until superfine, about 2 minutes.
  • Sift half the fine sugar, cake flour, and salt together in a bowl.
  • Whisk egg whites, water, cream of tartar, and lemon extract together in a large bowl for 2 minutes. Beat in remaining fine sugar using an electric mixer until medium peaks form. Sprinkle some of the flour mixture on top; stir in gently. Repeat with the rest of the flour mixture. Spoon batter carefully into an ungreased fluted tube pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 35 minutes. Invert onto a cooling rack and let cool completely, at least 25 minutes.
  • Beat cream cheese and 1/4 cup butter together in a bowl using an electric mixer on medium speed until light and creamy. Add lemon juice; beat until just blended. Gradually mix in all but 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar on low speed until frosting is just blended. Stir in lemon zest.
  • Mix 3/4 cup strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries thoroughly in a bowl with 2 tablespoons white sugar.
  • Cut a curved, smile-shaped line near the bottom of each whole strawberry; carefully cut another, flatter curve above. Connect the two curves and carve out space between to create the smile. Leave room above the smile and below the leaves for eyeballs.
  • Place reserved 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar in a small bowl. Dust hands with sugar and roll a tiny amount of stiff decorator icing between your fingers into a small ball. Place it on the strawberry, above the smile. Make another ball and stick it next to the first one. Stick 1 black sugar pearl onto each frosting ball to create eyes. Repeat with remaining whole strawberries.
  • Remove cake carefully from the pan, scraping edges from side if needed. Slice into 6 slices about 2 inches thick. Spread 2 tablespoons butter equally on the outside of the slices.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add a cake slice; toast until lightly browned, about 1 minute per side. Place toasted cake on a plate. Spoon some frosting on top and let it drip down. Spoon sugared berries around the cake and place a smiling strawberry on top. Repeat with remaining cake slices, frosting, and berries.
