A Snowball Cake for Christmas

and any time of the year…Easy, Festive and Yummy! I use real whipped cream instead of the whipped topping in mine. You can add strawberries, or any berries in place of the pineapple if you wish. Or just experiment…..You will be very happy with this cake. Men LOVE it…It’s light even if it does have whipped cream in it. With Whipped Cream, we already know Women LOVE it!

INGREDIENTS
• 2 tablespoons unflavored gelatin
• 1/4 cup cold water
• 1 cup boiling water
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 (20 ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained
• 1 (16 ounce) package frozen whipped topping, thawed, divided
• 1 (9 inch) prepared angel food cake, cut into cubes
• 1 1/2 cups flaked coconut
DIRECTIONS
