STRAWBERRY SUNSHINE CAKE

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, beat egg whites, cream of tartar and salt until soft peaks form.
• Gradually add 1 cup sugar, a tablespoon at a time, beating until stiff peaks form; set aside.
• In another bowl, beat egg yolks until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.
• Gradually add remaining sugar, beating until thick and lemon-colored.
• Blend in water and extracts.
• Sift flour over batter; beat until smooth.
• Fold in egg whites just until blended.
• Spoon into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan.
• Cut through batter with a knife to removed air pockets; smooth the top.
• Bake at 325 degrees for 50-55 minutes or until cake springs back when lightly touched.
• Immediately invert pan; cool completely.
• In a large bowl; dissolve gelatin in bowling water. Add ice water and stir.
• Place bowl in ice water for about 5 minutes or until slightly thickened.
• Fold in strawberries and 1/2 cup of the whipped topping.
• Run a knife around the edges of pan to loosen cake.
• Split the cake horizontally into three layers (I use dental floss); place bottom layer on a serving plate.
• Spread with half of the gelatin mixture. Repeat with a layer of cake and then the remaining gelatin mixture. Top with remaining cake layer.
• Frost top and sides with remaining whipped topping. Garnish with strawberries.
• Store in refrigerator until ready to serve. Refrigerate leftovers.
