Pink Trifle for a Perfect Mother's Day Dessert

[heat123]

Ok, I'm doing a pink recipe for my show today so I am putting a trifle together: white cake, strawberry pudding (vanilla pudding mixed with Strawberry jello), strawberry cool whip and fresh strawberries. Here's hoping it comes out well and the guests enjoy it! If it is a hit I will make it for our mother's day dinnner tomorrow!

The cheesecake flavored pudding is good in trifles with angel food cake & ya don't have to bake the cake.

Has anyone ever flavored an angel food cake chocolate somehow?

Chocolate Angel Food Cake II
Submitted by: Karla
Rated: 5 out of 5 by 26 members Prep Time: 30 Minutes
Cook Time: 1 Hour Ready In: 1 Hour 30 Minutes
Yields: 10 servings

"This is a yummy change to standard Angel Food cake. It has a light and delicate flavor and hits the spot of that chocolate craving. Note: for best flavor and texture, serve the cake on the day it's made and be sure to avoid any traces of yolk in the egg whites, which would prevent them from whipping to their fullest."
INGREDIENTS:
3/4 cup cake flour
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
powder
1 1/2 cups white sugar
3 (1 ounce) squares semisweet
chocolate, grated 12 egg whites
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice
confectioners' sugar for dusting

DIRECTIONS:
1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). If it does not have a removable bottom, line a 9 inch tube pan with parchment paper. Sift together the flour, cocoa and 3/4 cup of the sugar. Set aside. Measure 3 tablespoons of the flour mixture and toss with the grated chocolate.
2. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer set at low speed, beat egg whites until foamy. Increase mixer speed to medium, stir in cream of tartar and salt, and continue to beat until egg whites form soft peaks. Gradually mix in the remaining 3/4 cup sugar and beat until stiff peaks form. Stir in the vanilla and lemon juice.
3. Gently fold the flour mixture into the beaten egg whites, then fold in the grated chocolate, stirring just until no white streaks remain.
4. Gently scrape the batter into the prepared pan. Smooth the surface of the batter and tap the pan lightly to remove any air bubbles. Bake in center of the preheated oven for 60 minutes, or until the surface springs back when touched. Cool completely, and sprinkle with confectioners' sugar before serving, if desired.

ok, everyone loved it but personally -I did not care for the flavor of the pudding or the coolwhip, both strawberry. I think it tasted to artificial for me but since everyone elsed liked it I will make them at the rest of my shows this month! It was pretty looking too!

PS. to make the strawberry flavored pudding I just added 1 pack of jello to it while mixing the pudding (I used 2 pkgs of pudding). Hope that helps!
