<li style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; box-sizing: inherit;">1 boxed yellow cake mix, baked according to package directions</li>
<li style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; box-sizing: inherit;">1 can vanilla frosting</li>
<li style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; box-sizing: inherit;">1 (8 ounce) whipped topping</li>
<li style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; box-sizing: inherit;">1 quart fresh strawberries mixed with 1/4 cup sugar</li>
</ul>
