Directions:
1, Preheat to 350º

2. Make the cake as per directions on the box. Use a 9x13 pan.

4. Whip the cream with the confectioners sugar and vanilla at medium-high speed til it reaches stiff peaks.

5. Mix gelatin as directed on box. Refrigerate gelatin, but don't let it harden - it should cool to a liquid consistency.

7. Spread the strawberry cognac mixture on top of the cake. Spread the whipped cream on top of that and garnish with fresh strawberries. Refrigerate at least four hours.
