Easy Patriotic Dessert
Angel food cake was a staple in my house growing up, probably because the cake mix was just so easy to make! I remember my mother packing a slice of left over cake in my lunch box the next day, and WOW did I love that! When my whole family gets together these days we usually find an excuse to whip up this family favorite. You can use this recipe all year long, just add the color of food dye for whatever holiday you’re celebrating.
If you’re making this party to serve outside, you may want to use my 99 cent trick to stabilizing whipping cream! It will help keep the whipped cream from “melting” in the heat or over time. I use is all the time because a hate my whipping cream turning into a puddle by the next morning or in the sun.
I served my berries plain, but feel free to toss them in a bowl with 2 tablespoons of sugar to help pull out the juices from the strawberries! This will give a glossy look to the berries and sweeten them, yum!
Check out that blue swirl! So why didn’t I add a red swirl too? Well, I didn’t want to risk the blue and the red mixing to make purple!
This recipe is SUPER simple! I’m not trying to make anything fancy here. I’m just giving an option for those of you who either don’t have a lot of free time or feel like they can’t make something without a box mix. No matter your baking level, you can make a perfect and cute 4th of July dessert!
