Description

A delicious and easy dessert that combines a fluffy vanilla cake with a creamy strawberry filling and a whipped topping, garnished with fresh strawberries.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 15.25 ounces vanilla cake mix or white cake mix
  • 4 egg whites
  • 1 cup water
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
  • ⅓ cup boiling water
  • 3 ounces strawberry-flavored gelatin
  • 21 ounces strawberry pie filling
  • 12 ounces whipped topping, thawed
  • 12 fresh strawberries, washed, capped, and sliced thin

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and spray a 9×13 baking pan with Baker’s Joy or a generic baking spray.
  2. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the boxed cake mix, water, vegetable oil, and egg whites until combined.
  3. Pour the cake batter into the prepared baking dish and bake for 28 to 30 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  4. Once baked, poke holes in the warm cake with a fork or the handle of a wooden spoon, spacing 1 inch apart, and allow to cool completely.
  5. In a medium heat-safe bowl, combine the white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk, microwaving for 40 seconds and stirring until smooth.
  6. In a small heat-safe bowl, mix the boiling water and strawberry-flavored gelatin, stirring until dissolved.
  7. Pour the gelatin over the white chocolate mixture and stir until combined.
  8. Evenly pour the white chocolate mixture over the cooled cake and smooth with a spatula.
  9. Chill the cake in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.
  10. Spread strawberry pie filling over the top of the white chocolate layer, cover, and chill for 4 hours to overnight.
  11. Remove the cake from the refrigerator, spread the whipped topping over the cake, and lay sliced strawberries on top.
  12. Slice the cake into 2×2 pieces and serve.

Notes
