Pineapple Angel Cake

We had this tonight for the first time and it was awesome. Nice and light and fruity! I meant to take a picture of this before we ate it so I could post it, but I completely forgot. Hopefully the recipe is enticing enough without a picture!

1 10 oz round angel food cake
1 pkg vanilla instant pudding & pie filling (4-serving size)
1 20 oz can crushed pineapple in juice, undrained
1 cup thawed Cool Whip
10 fresh strawberries

Mix dry pudding mix and pineapple (& juice) in bowl. Mix in Cool Whip and let stand 5 minutes until thickened. Cut angel food cake into 3 horizontal layers. Top bottom layer with a little over 1 cup of the pineapple mixture. Repeat with other two layers. Refrigerate for at least one hour. When ready to serve, arrange the fresh strawberries on the top layer of the cake.

I just thought of something else I should have done! Next time I make this, I'm going to slice extra strawberries and place them between each layer on top of the pineapple/pudding mixture! Sounds yummy.
