Memorial Day Mason Jar Strawberry Shortcakes/Back by Popular Demand

Making these desserts ahead of time is a great way of limiting others from too much exposure to food items this holiday. You can use mason jars or any glassware you have. 


Six (12 oz.) mason jars
1 Angel Food cake
6 cups sliced strawberries
2-3 cups blueberries
1 pint heavy whipping cream 
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup powdered sugar

**To make the whipped cream from scratch, place a large mixing bowl into the freezer for 10 minutes. Add the whipping cream and vanilla to the chilled bowl.  Whip the mixture on medium speed while gradually adding the powdered sugar.  Increase the speed to high and whip the cream until it holds its shape and appears stiff. (2-3 minutes).  Refrigerate until ready to use.

Or shortcut and use canned whipped cream or Cool Whip.  Works beautifully!

Slice the angel food cake into 2" cubes and layer angel food cake, sliced strawberries, and whipped cream and top with sliced strawberries.
Delicious!
