Strawberry Bomb

Thank you, thank you, thank you Laurel for this recipe. It was soooo delicious!! Yesterday evening we went over to my Aunt Marta and Uncle Jim's house for dinner and I thought this was the perfect opportunity to try this recipe. We devoured it so fast that I didn't get to take my own picture, so I stole this one from Laurel too :-)

2 (8oz.) pkgs. cream cheese, at room temp.

1 Cup sour cream

2 Cups powdered sugar

1 tsp. almond extract

1 pint whipping cream

1 full angel food cake, broken in pieces

3 lbs. strawberries

2 T. sugar

-With hand mixer, cream the cream cheese. Add sour cream, powdered sugar, almond extract and whipping cream- mix well until it begins to thicken a bit and is creamy & smooth. The creamed mixture will thicken a bit more while it sits in the fridge to chill. Don't let it sit too long though b/c the angel food cake will get soggy.
-Wash and slice strawberries- mix with a little sugar to sweeten (sugar is optional, and in my opinion with really good strawberries is unnecessary).
-Cut or break angel food cake into pieces.
-In a big bowl, layer cream mixture, angel food cake pieces, then strawberries. Repeat layers and top with cream mixture. Place a strawberry on top to garnish. Chill. (*this doesn't keep well, so make sure you have plenty of people on hand to eat it- it will stay good for maybe a day in the fridge.)
