Using a boxed cake mix, ready-made frosting, and premade whipped topping takes all of the work out of the preparation. Reminiscent of a chocolate-covered strawberry, this appealing cake recipe is a good choice when you want an eye-catching dessert with minimal effort.

  • 1 package 2-layer-size strawberry cake mix
  • 1 cup canned chocolate frosting
  • 1 8-ounce container frozen whipped dessert topping, thawed
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • Strawberries

directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour two 8-inch or two 9-inch round baking pans; set aside. Prepare cake mix according to package directions. Divide batter between pans. Bake according to package directions. Cool in pans on wire racks for 10 minutes. Remove cake layers from pans. Cool completely.
  2. Spread 2/3 cup of the frosting on one of the layers. Top with remaining cake layer. Frost top and side of cake layers with dessert topping.
