Strawberries (or other fruity things) in the Snow
A coworker of mine made this for another co-worker’s birthday. Upon learning just how easy it is, I thought I’d make it, but I swapped cherries for strawberries, but the man likes cherries. Forget about y’all strawberry folk. (Really, I wanted peach because my hormones told me so, but cherry is actually my favorite, especially in canned pie filling land.)
Ingredients:
- 1 box yellow cake mix
- 1 small box cheesecake instant pudding mix
- 1/3 c. oil
- 1 c. water
- 4 eggs
- 8 oz. cream cheese (softened)
- 1 c. powdered sugar
- 12 oz. cool whip
- 21 oz. can pie filling (whatever flavor you like)
Mix cake mix, pudding mix, oil, water and eggs until well blended. Bake in 13×9 at 350 until done (about 30 minutes, but check it.) Remove from pan and let cool.
Combine cream cheese and powdered sugar and beat until smooth and slightly fluffy.
To assemble cake, slice cake into two thin layers and place one layer back in pan. Top with half of cream cheese mixture and half of cool whip. Place other layer on. Repeat cream cheese/cool whip layering. Top with pie filling. Refrigerate 2 hours or until ready to serve.
