INSTRUCTIONS
In a mixing bowl, prepare cake mix according to package directions,
substituting four yolks for the whole eggs. Pour the batter into two
greased and floured 9-inch round cake pans. In another mixing bowl, beat
egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add 2/3 cup sugar, 1 tbsp at a
time, beating until stiff peaks form. Carefully spread over batter;
sprinkle with almonds and remaining sugar. Bake at 350° for 40-45 minutes
or until meringue is golden and a toothpick inserted near the center of
cake comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes; remove from pans to a wire rack,
meringue side up, to cool completely. Place one cake with meringue side up
on serving plate. Spread with half of the whipped topping and top with half
of the strawberries. Cover with remaining cake, topping and berries.
Garnish with mint if desired.
