How to Make No Bake Strawberry Dessert

  1. Cube a 10-ounce package of angel food cake into 1-inch pieces.
  2. Arrange the cake cubes in a single layer in a 13x9x2-inch glass dish.
  3. In a medium bowl, dissolve 1 packet (1 tablespoon) of unflavored gelatin in 1/2 cup of boiling water. Stir until completely dissolved.
  4. Gently fold in 2 cups of thawed and sliced frozen strawberries.
  5. Pour the gelatin mixture evenly over the cake layer in the dish. Gently press the cake down to submerge it slightly.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until the gelatin is completely set.
  7. In a separate large bowl, whisk together 2 cups of cold milk and 1 (3.4-ounce) package of instant vanilla pudding mix for 2 minutes, or until thickened and smooth.
  8. Carefully spoon the pudding mixture evenly over the set gelatin layer.
  9. Top with 1 cup of whipped topping (store-bought or homemade).
  10. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld and the dessert to chill completely.
