- Ready In:
- 20mins
- Ingredients:
- 4
- Serves:
-
8
ingredients
- 1 angel food cake mix or 1 store bought angel food cake
- 1 pint heavy cream
- 1 (3 1/2 ounce) box vanilla pudding mix
- 10 large strawberries (or more if desired)
directions
- Mix and put the angel food cake into the bunt pan and bake as directed.
- Let the cake cool COMPLETELY.
- In the meantime take your pint of heavy cream and mix it with the pudding mix in a small bowl. The mixture should become thick and creamy but still spreadable.
- When the cake is completely cooled, remove it carefully from the pan.
- Use a knife and cut the cake in half through the middle, leave the cake in two complete sections (note cut in half as in horizontally not as if you were splitting the cake into slices and cut it in half first).
- Laying the cake with the insides facing up use your fingers to hollow out a ring for the filling on both pieces. make sure not to damage the edges of the cake for presentation purposes. Feel free to "sample" the cake seeing as these pieces you remove will not be needed.
- At this point you can cut, wash and put the strawberries or bananas or whatever fruit desired into the cream or just lay the cream in the crevice you created on the bottom half of the cake putting the fruit on top. Don't be sparing--let the cream fill over the crevice because the top has been hollowed out also. I cut the strawberries into tiny pieces because I don't like getting large wedges of fruit in one bite, and if you need to make it stretch further, everyone gets some fruit in their piece.
- Once you fill the mixture in, carefully place the top back on the cake. Feel free to use any remaining filling to help secure excess fruit to the top.

Fabulous, simple and the "WOW" factor all rolled into one. My daughter chose this as her birthday cake and she could not have been more impressed. I have attached a few photos for you. The first pic shows the cake cut in half horizontally with the "tunnel" filled and ready for assembly. There is also a pic of the cake after we ate half of it! I added more fruit than suggested but that is personal taste. One change I will make is to use a brand name vanilla pudding next time. I used a generic brand and it was lacking in vanilla flavour. Thanks so much for sharing this simple recipe. I will make this many more times and try other fillings too.

Was finally able to pick up some great looking strawberries for this recipe & since the idea was kind of unique, I followed the recipe right on down & we have a spectacular dessert, thanks to you & your recipe! Will certainly work on another one, especially when we have our local strawberry season! [Tagged & made in Please Review My Recipe]

This is very creamy and good. I made a cake from scratch and had a little problem getting it out of the pan perfectly. I love the way the way the cream mixes with the pudding mix. I used frozen sliced strawberries with sugar about 24 ounces. For our taste there is way too few strawberries for the amount of cake. You list 10 strawberries and that is way less than we used and still my family said there is too much cream for the amount of starberries. Made for Please Make my Recipe.

I'm heaven sent, don't you dare forget
I am all you've ever wanted,
what all the other [boys] all promised
Sorry I told, I just needed you to know
I think in decimals and dollars
I am the cause to all your problems
Shelter from cold, We are never alone
Coordinate brain and mouth
Then ask me what it's like to have myself so figured out - I wish I knew
I hope this songs starts a craze,
the kind of song that ignites the airways
The kind of song that makes people glad to be where they are
with who ever they're there with
This is war - Every line is about who I don't write about anymore
Hope you come down with something they can't diagnose,
don't have the cure for
Holding on to your grudge
Oh it's so hard to have someone to love
Keeping quiet is hard
'Cause you can't keep a secret if it never was a secret to start
At least pretend you didn't wanna get caught
We're consentratin' on fallin' apart
We were contenders, now throwin' the fight
I just wanna believe, I just wanna believe, I just wanna believe in us
Oh we're so c-c-c-c-c-controversial
We are entirely smooth
We fit to the truth
We are the best at what we do
And these are the words you wish you wrote down
This is the way you wish your voice sounds,
handsome and smart
Oh, my tongue's the only muscle on my body that works harder than my heart
And it's all from watching TV
and from speeding up my breathing
Wouldn't stop if I could
Oh it hurts to be this good
You're holding on to your grudge
Oh it hurts to always have to be honest with the one that you love
Oh so let it go
This is the craze only we can bestow
This is the price you pay for loss of control
This is the break in the ground
This is the closest of calls
This is the reason you're alone, this is the reason you fall!
We're consentratin' on fallin' apart
We were contenders, now throwin' the fight
I just wanna believe, I just wanna believe, I just wanna believe in us

I love to cook and to bake and to watch people enjoy the food that I make, and most of all I enjoy this 'practice' period I have - to prepare me for when I have a family of my own :)
