How is this for the perfect summer party dessert? Take advantage of the peak of strawberry season and serve this classic at your next birthday party, baby shower or family barbecue. The preparation is so simple — it can be turned into a cooking activity among your guests and have them assemble their own.
“Breakfast party,” you say? Replace the angel food cake loaf with homemade mini-pancakes and serve with maple syrup!
These charming shortcake sticks are popular with the kids and are great conversation starters. A beautiful and distinctive way to serve dessert and sweeten up your summer with just a few ingredients.
Ingredients
1 angel food cake loaf, sliced into 1” cubes (use a serrated knife for easy cutting)
3 cups fresh strawberries, rinsed, hulled and cut in halves.
Cool Whip Whipped Topping
8-10 wooden skewers, with pointy sides cut off
To assemble skewers:
Alternate shortcake cubes and strawberry halves by piercing on each skewer.
To serve:
Place assembled skewers on a platter and let guests dollop the whipped topping over skewers. Whipped topping can also be served on the side for dipping.
Serves 8-10
