Servings 8

Ingredients
  

Berries:

  • 1 quart strawberries sliced
  • 2 tbsp. lime juice
  • 2 tsp. sugar
  • 2 tbsp. white rum (Bacardi, etc.)
  • 2 tbsp. chopped fresh mint

Cream:

  • 1 c. whipping cream
  • 2 tbsp. sugar
  • Zest of one lime

Cake:

  • Angel food cake sliced into 8 slices

Instructions
 

  • Combine sliced strawberries, lime juice, sugar, and rum in a bowl. Let the berries mascerate in the juice, sugar, and rum for 20 minutes.
  • While the berries are mascerating, beat the cream and sugar until soft peaks form. Fold in the lime zest.
  • Place the angel food cake slices on a warm grill and toast all sides. Watch them carefully as they burn easily! Depending on the heat of your grill, toasting may take less than a minute per side.
  • Just before serving, toss the berries with the chopped mint. Serve a piece of grilled angel food cake with a large spoonful of berries and a good size dollop of whipped cream.
