Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 Box Angel Food Cake Box Mix
  • 1 1/4 cups water
  • 3.4 oz Vanilla Instant Pudding Mix
  • 3 cups cold milk
  • 56 cups fresh strawberries, sliced
  • 2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
  • Whipped cream (optional)

Instructions

  1. Make the vanilla pudding according to the package instructions, mixing 3 cups of cold milk with the pudding mix and whisking until blended. Allow it to set for about 5 minutes.
  2. Sprinkle the sliced strawberries with granulated sugar and set aside to let the flavors meld.
  3. Preheat the oven to 350°F and ensure all your bowls and utensils are clean for best results.
  4. Blend the angel food cake mix and water in a large bowl on low speed until moistened, about 30 seconds.
  5. Increase to medium speed and beat for 1 minute. Be careful not to overbeat.
  6. Pour the mixture into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan and bake immediately for 38 to 48 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Hang the pan upside down on a heat-proof glass bottle until completely cool, about 1½ hours.
  8. Loosen the edges of the cake carefully and remove it from the pan.
  9. Cut the cooled cake into small squares.
  10. Place half of the cake squares into the bottom of a trifle dish, followed by half of the pudding.
  11. Scatter half of the sweetened strawberries over the pudding.
  12. Repeat the layering with the remaining cake squares, pudding, and strawberries.

Notes

Serve with whipped cream and fresh mint leaves for added flavor and presentation.
