Ingredients
  

  • 1 box white cake mix plus ingredients listed on the box
  • 42 ounces strawberry pie filling 2 21-ounce cans
  • 8- ounces Cool Whip thawed
  • 2 pints fresh strawberries sliced

Instructions
 

  • Follow the instructions on the cake mix box to prepare the batter. Pour it into the prepared baking dish and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Once done, set the pan on a wire rack to cool for 15 minutes.
  • Use the end of a wooden spoon to poke holes in the cake about every inch apart. Carefully pour the strawberry pie filling evenly over the top of the cake. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • Top with Cool Whip: Spread the thawed Cool Whip evenly over the pie filling.
  • Just before serving, top the cake with the sliced strawberries in a decorative manner. Enjoy!

Notes

Make sure the cake is completely cooled before adding the Cool Whip to prevent it from melting and losing its fluffy texture.
Let the cake chill for at least an hour, but the longer it sits, the more the flavors meld together for a deliciously moist dessert.
