1 large angel food cake
For Custard
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 (12 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
For Glaze
1 cup sugar
3 tablespoons cornstarch
3 tablespoons strawberry Jell-O gelatin dessert

Recipe
Slice cake, using a serrated-edge knife, horizontally into three equal layers.
Mix together cream cheese, condensed milk and whipped topping in a bowl; set aside.
In a medium saucepan, stir together sugar, cornstarch and Jell-o, add water.
Cook, stirring over medium heat until thick. Remove from heat and allow to cool completely, then fold in strawberries.

Repeat layering in this order for remaining cake, glaze, and custard.
For a pretty presentation, top cake with three whole fresh strawberries and fresh mint leaves.
