Notes

I think the notes people include in their recipes make them more personal. If I write a note myself about a recipe, it will always be written in purple.

Tropical Fruit over Angel Food Cake

Tropical Fruit over Angel Food Cake

1/2 cup Land O Lakes Gourmet Heavy Whipping Cream
1 tablespoon powdered sugar
1 tablespoon almond-flavored liqueur -- if desired
1 kiwi fruit -- peeled and chopped
1 can (11 oz) mandarin orange segments -- drained
1 can (8 oz) pineapple tidbits in juice -- drained
6 2" slices angel food cake
1/4 cup toasted coconut

1. Beat chilled whipping cream, powdered sugar and liqueur on high speed in small chilled mixer bowl, scraping bowl often, until stiff peaks form (2 to 3 minutes). Set aside.

2. Combine kiwi fruit, mandarin oranges and pineapple in small bowl.

3. To serve, place 1 cake slice on each dessert plate; top with 1/3 cup fruit mixture and 2 tablespoons whipped cream mixture. Sprinkle with coconut.

Makes 6 Servings.

"The tartness of the pineapple balances the sweet flavored cake and whipped cream topping."

NOTES : Tasty Tip: Angel food cake can be homemade or purchased in the bakery department at the supermarket. This cake is low in fat and very versatile. Try toasting slices and topping it with fruit spread for a sweet treat.
