Ingredients
Scale
- 1 angel food cake
- 2 cups strawberries, sliced
- 1 cup whipped cream
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar

Instructions
- Whip the cream: Pour cold whipped cream into a large mixing bowl. Sprinkle in powdered sugar and add vanilla extract. Blend on medium speed for about 2-3 minutes until you achieve a smooth, creamy consistency that holds soft peaks.
- Add strawberries: Gently fold in the sliced strawberries with your spatula. Take care to maintain the delightful airiness of the whipped cream, allowing the flavors to mingle.
