Directions

1

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare cake batter as package directs; spoon 1/2 cup each into eight 6-ounce non-greased ovenproof custard cups, filling no more than two-thirds full. Spoon remaining batter into non-greased 9 x 5-inch loaf pan; refrigerate loaf pan. Place custard cups spaced apart on baking sheet and bake in center of oven 20 to 25 minutes until tops are dark golden brown. Cool cups completely on racks. (Meanwhile, bake loaf pan about 35 minutes until top is dark golden brown. Cool and remove from pan as package directs; reserve for another use.) Reserve eight strawberries with caps, for garnish. Stem, and slice remaining strawberries into bowl. Sweeten with sugar as needed; cover and chill. With thin sharp knife remove cakes from custard cups and halve horizontally with serrated knife. In small microwave bowl or saucepan mix fudge sauce with amaretto or almond extract; heat just until warm. To assemble desserts, spoon 1 1/2 tablespoons fudge sauce onto each of eight dessert plates. Place bottom halves of cakes on plates. Cover with sliced strawberries and cake tops. Spoon more sliced strawberries over cakes. Top each with 2 tablespoons whipped cream and garnish with a whole strawberry. Makes 8 servings Variation: Bake cake batter in two non-greased 9- x 5-inch loaf pans as package directs; cool and remove from pans. With serrated knife cut sixteen 1/2-inch slices cake. (Reserve remainder of cake for another use.) Assemble desserts as above, using two cake slices for each dessert. * For a lighter dessert replace fudge sauce with prepared nonfat fudge sauce and whipped cream with light whipped topping.
