RASPBERRY
CREAM-FILLED ANGEL CAKE
1 store-bought angel food cake
14 oz. can sweetened condensed milk
4 T. lemon juice
1-1/2 t. almond extract
1 - 12 oz. container of Cool Whip or other whipped cream topping
2 pints fresh raspberries, cleaned & hulled
Turn cake upside down and cut a 1 inch slice off of the "top".
Lift it off carefully, set it aside, and cut out the insides of
your cake. Cut pieces into one inch cubes. Leave at least a one
inch cake "cushion" all the way around the edges as well
as on the bottom. You’ll be left with a hollow shell that
we’ll fill with fresh berries and cream!
Combine sweetened
condensed milk, lemon juice and extract. Fold Cool Whip into milk
mixture and chill for 10 minutes. Once chilled, pour 1-1/2 cups
worth into a bowl and stir in cake pieces. Gently fold in strawberry
slices and spoon mixture into cake shell. Replace "top"
and press to seal. Use extra cream mixture to frost cake. Chill
in fridge for 2 hours - garnish with additional berries if desired.
Sliced and toasted almonds also look nice sprinkled on this beautiful
cake. |
