Ingredients

CAKE

  • 1 family-size Sara Lee pound cake

FILLING

  • 2 cans strawberry pie filling
  • 1 container Philadelphia no-bake cheesecake filling

TOPPING

  • 1 container whipped cream
  • Fresh strawberries

Instructions

  • Slice the pound cake into bite-size cubes, keeping them uniform so they layer evenly and soak up the filling
  • Add the cake pieces to the bottom of a large casserole dish, spreading them out into an even layer that covers the entire base.
  • Spoon the strawberry pie filling over the cake, gently spreading it so the fruit and syrup settle into the gaps between the cake pieces.
  • Add a smooth layer of no-bake cheesecake filling, spreading it evenly with a spatula until the strawberries are fully covered.
  • Finish with a thick layer of whipped cream, spreading it lightly to keep the dessert airy and light.
  • Top with fresh sliced strawberries, then cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour until chilled and set before serving cold.
