Strawberry Danish Dessert


Ingredients:
     1 package of white or yellow cake mix
     1 package Danish strawberry dessert (Junket brand)
     1 ½ cups of water
     1 can or small bag frozen raspberries or strawberries
     3 cups fresh strawberries, cut up
     1 pint whipped cream
     1 cup powdered sugar
     1 - 8 ounce package of cream cheese

Directions:

Bake half of a cake mix in a 9 x 13 inch pan until golden at 350 degrees according to the directions on the package. Remember that since only have the cake is being cooked it will take less time to bake.

Mix the package of Danish dessert with water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil and cook until thick and glossy (about 1 minute). Add 1 can or bag of frozen raspberries or strawberries, then add about 3 cups fresh cut up strawberries. Mix well.

Whip the cream until stiff then add the powdered sugar and cream cheese. Mix together well and spread on top of the cooled cake.

Spoon the Danish strawberry mixture over the filling and put in refrigerator. Cover until ready to serve.


*The Danish Dessert is sometimes hard to find.  In Utah it can be found at Smith's.  For the rest of us, it can be found online with a search engine.  In bulk, it can be bought on amazon at $16.80 for 12.  There are a few other sites that carry it as well.  No matter what it takes, this cake is definitely worth it!
