Time 40m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 angel food cake mix, plus ingredients to prepare
1 cup powdered sugar, divided (1/4 and 3/4)
8 ounces light cream cheese, room temperature
1 1/2 cups heavy cream, 35%
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups fresh strawberries, diced
1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries
1 1/2 cups fresh raspberries

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and line the bottom of a 10x15x1" rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper (make sure that it lays flat on the bottom). Do not grease the pan.
  • Prepare cake mix according to package directions. Pour into prepared pan and bake for about 20 minutes, until the top is golden and the edges start to crack. *NOTE: It will rise up in the pan significantly, even over the top. But even though it gets high it should not flow over -- if you're concerned, slip an extra baking sheet or a piece of foil underneath just in case.
  • Loosen cake from the edges of the pan while it's still warm -- it's going to be a little sticky, like angel food cake is, but it will come away easily.
  • Spread out a clean kitchen towel and sprinkle evenly with ¼ cup powdered sugar. Flip warm cake out onto the towel, peel off the parchment paper and immediately roll up starting at the short end, WITH the towel inside. Let cool completely (at room temperature for 1-2 hours or pop it in the fridge or freeze momentarily if you're impatient like me! You don't want it hot inside when you add your filling.).
  • In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Add ¾ cup powdered sugar, vanilla and cream and beat on low until combined, then on high for 3-4 minutes until fluffy and stiff peaks form.
  • Unroll cooled cake (you can just leave it laying on the towel) and spread with half of the filling and top with half of the berries. Carefully roll back up (this time without the towel!) and place on a serving plate. Spread top and sides with remaining filling and top with remaining berries. Serve immediately (leftovers are best eaten within 24 hours).

BLUE ANGEL CAKE

Categories     dessert

Time 2h10m

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 3/4 cups egg whites (about 12 large eggs)
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
3/4 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 cup sifted cake flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 quart whipping cream
1/4 cup sugar
3 tablespoons blue Curaçao

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. In a large bowl, bring the egg whites to room temperature. In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon water, the lemon juice and vanilla; set aside. Sift into another bowl 1/2 cup sugar, the flour and salt.
  • With an electric mixer, whip the egg whites for 1 minute. Add the water mixture and cream of tartar. Whip at high speed until the egg whites are fluffy. Gradually beat in the remaining sugar, beating until the mixture holds a stiff, mounded peak. (Do not overbeat; the mixture should not look dry.)
  • Sift half the flour mixture over the whites and fold in with a wide rubber spatula. Repeat with the remaining flour mixture.
  • Spoon the batter into a 10-inch tube pan with a detachable bottom and smooth the top. Bake until the top is golden and springs back, 40 to 45 minutes.
  • Cool the cake upside down for about an hour, centering it over a large bottle. Run a knife around the cake edges, inner and outer, and, holding the tube, remove the cake. Run a knife between the cake and the bottom of the pan and invert the cake onto a cutting board. Using a large serrated knife, cut the cake horizontally into thirds.
  • Using an electric mixer, whip the cream at high speed until thickened. Gradually whip in sugar. When soft mounds begin to form, beat in the Curaçao until the icing is firm.
  • Assemble the cake on a serving dish, spreading the icing between the layers, then over the sides and top. Chill until ready to serve.
