Lemon Angel Cake

Summer is almost here and it's time for some "cool" desserts. You could choose any fruit, strawberry and kiwi is the recipe that I have, but I think raspberries and blackberries would be yummy also.

Enjoy!

Lemon Angel Cake Serves 12

1 (10" round) angel food cake (homemade or store bought)
1 (15.75 oz.) can lemon pie filling
1 1/2 c. frozen whipped topping, thawed
1 quart (4 c.) fresh strawberries, sliced
2 kiwi fruit, peeled, sliced and quartered

1. Cut angel food cake horizontally into 3 layers (the best way to do this is with a serrated bread knife). Place bottom layer, cut side up, on serving plate.

2. Place lemon pie filling in a medium bowl; stir until smooth. Fold in whipped topping. Spread 1/3 of lemon mixture on bottom layer of cake. Top with middle layer of cake. Spread another 1/3 of lemon mixture over middle layer; add top layer. Frost top of cake with remaining lemon mixture. Cover and refrigerate until serving time.

3. Slice fruits and place together into a small bowl. If you like, sprinkle with a bit of sugar to add sweetness (and juice) to the strawberries.

4. To serve, cut cake into 12 slices. Spoon some of the fruit mixture over each slice of cake.
