No Bake Angel Food Flag Cake Bars
These no bake angel food flag cake bars make entertaining quick and easy. Premade angel food cakes are decorated with a fluffy white icing, fresh blueberries, and sliced strawberries to make this patriotic dessert.
Equipment
- Piping bag
- Wilton decorating tip 21
Ingredients
- 1 Angel food cake log
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened (½ block)
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 8 ounces cool whip
- 1/2 cup strawberries, sliced
- 12 blueberries
Instructions
- Beat the softened cream cheese and the powdered sugar on medium speed for about 2 minutes. You want the frosting well blended with no lumps.
- Fold in the cool whip and mix until smooth.
- Cover the cake with a layer of icing using a spatula.
- Add the remaining icing into a piping bag and attach Wilton decorating tip # 21.
- Decorate: Squeeze the icing bag and let a small amount of the frosting come out. Stop squeezing as you pull straight back up to make a star shape.
- Repeat that process all around the bottom edges of the cake.
- Add the blueberries and strawberries to the cake to resemble the stars and stripes of the American flag.
Notes
- If you don't have a decorating tip/bag, you can use a ziplock back and just wing it.
- Instead of making the homemade cream cheese and cool whip frosting, you can use store bought.
- Swap out the fresh strawberries and blueberries for your favorites.
- Use homemade or premade angel food cake bars.
- This recipe makes enough for 1 cake bar. If you need more, you can easily adjust the amount, double, or even triple the recipe.
- Store the no bake flag cakes in the fridge, covered. Any leftovers can be enjoyed for up to 4 days.
