Strawberry Shortcake Trifle

I had a friend send me a text message the other day asking if I liked strawberry shortcake. Of course my answer was a resounding "YES!". I was going to see her that evening, so she brought me a small container of what looked just like strawberry shortcake. When I tasted it, I knew it was different...and delicious. I texted her back later that evening asking for the recipe and she happily obliged. This easy little dessert with knock you into next week. It's SO good!!!!

Strawberry Shortcake Trifle



4 - 5 cups sliced strawberries (about 2 pounds)
1 14-ounce container strawberry glaze
2 8-ounce packages cream cheese
1 cup sugar
1 8-ounce container Cool Chip
1 9-ounce angel food cake

Tear angel food cake into bite sized pieces. Set aside.

In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese and sugar until well mixed.
Fold in the Cool Whip.

In a separate bowl, combine the sliced strawberries and the glaze. Mix well.

In a large glass serving bowl, start layering the cake, berries and the cream cheese mixture, starting with the angel food cake and ending with the cream cheese mixture.

I do three layers of each. 

Garnish with a whole strawberry.

Chill for several hours before serving. 

Here's what you need.

Tear the angel food cake into bite sized pieces.

Pour the glaze over the sliced berries. 

(If you're not a fan of glaze, then you 

could just sugar the berries a little and use them that way.)

Cream the sugar and cream cheese 

together then fold in the Cool Whip.

Starting with the angel food cake,

 make three layers of each ingredient. 

Cake, berries, cream cheese mixture.

See how pretty??

Now dig in!!
