Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 cups (170g) sliced fresh strawberries
- 3 cups (150g) mini marshmallows
Supporting Ingredients:
- 1 container (8 oz / 226g) whipped topping
Instructions
- Gather 3 cups (150g) mini marshmallows in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat at 50% power for 20-second intervals, stirring between each burst until completely melted and smooth.
- Allow marshmallow mixture to cool for 3-4 minutes. Gently incorporate 1 container (8 oz / 226g) whipped topping, creating a fluffy base that looks light and airy.
- Select 2 cups (170g) fresh strawberries. Slice them carefully, ensuring each piece remains intact. Delicately fold strawberries into the marshmallow mixture without pressing or breaking the fruit.
- Prepare a 6-inch cake pan by lining the interior with plastic wrap, ensuring complete coverage with minimal wrinkles. Carefully transfer the strawberry-marshmallow blend into the lined pan.
- Smooth the top of the mixture using a silicone spatula, creating an even surface. Press gently to remove air pockets.
- Transfer the pan to the refrigerator. Chill for a minimum of 6 hours, or ideally overnight, allowing the dessert to set completely and develop its signature cloud-like texture.
- Remove from refrigerator 10 minutes before serving. Lift the dessert out using the plastic wrap edges. Slice into wedges with a sharp knife, cleaning the blade between cuts for neat portions.
Notes
- Use fresh, ripe strawberries for the best flavor and sweetness in the cake.
- Ensure marshmallows are completely melted and smooth before mixing with whipped topping to avoid lumps.
- Let the marshmallow mixture cool slightly before folding in strawberries to prevent them from breaking down.
- For a lighter version, substitute low-fat whipped topping and use sugar-free marshmallows to reduce calories.
