Notes

  1. You can also make homemade whipped topping if you prefer something homemade. 
  2. Opt to cover the cake in strawberry pie filling in place of gelatin and cream cheese frosting in place of whipped topping for a heavier version of this cake.
  3. Cover leftovers with plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator.
