  3. Slowly beat in confectioners' sugar until creamy and fluffy.
    Confectioners' sugar is gradually being added to the cream cheese mixture while an electric mixer blends everything together. The mixture becomes light, smooth, and fluffy, forming the perfect base for the dessert.
  4. Fold in the whipped topping gently to maintain a light texture.
    A spatula gently folds whipped topping into the cream cheese mixture, creating an airy and creamy consistency. This careful mixing technique helps maintain a light and fluffy texture for the dessert.
  5. In a separate dish, layer torn angel food cake pieces evenly.
    A 9x13-inch dish is being filled with evenly torn pieces of soft angel food cake. The light and spongy cake layer will absorb the creamy mixture, creating a delicious base for the dessert.
  6. Spread the cream mixture over the cake, ensuring even coverage.
  7. Arrange sliced strawberries on top, covering the surface.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to let the flavors meld.
    The prepared strawberry cream cheese angel food cake dessert is placed in the refrigerator to chill for at least two hours. This step helps the flavors blend together, resulting in a refreshing and perfectly set dessert.
