Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a medium bowl, gently combine the frozen strawberries and granulated sugar. Ensure the strawberries are evenly coated with sugar. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

02

Step

Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or overnight, to allow the strawberries to thaw and macerate, creating a luscious syrup. (Refrigeration time: 8-12 hours)

03

Step

Once the strawberries are thawed, place a slice of angel food cake on each serving plate.

04

Step

Generously top each slice with a dollop of thawed whipped topping.

05

Step

Spoon the sweetened strawberries and their flavorful syrup over the whipped topping. Serve immediately and enjoy! (Assembly time: 5 minutes)

For an extra touch of elegance, garnish with fresh mint leaves.
If fresh strawberries are in season, feel free to substitute them for frozen. Adjust the sugar amount to taste based on the sweetness of the berries.
A drizzle of balsamic glaze can add a sophisticated twist to the flavor profile.
Consider toasting the angel food cake for a few minutes before assembling for added texture.
