1. Bake the Cake:

• Prepare and bake the chocolate cake mix according to the package directions, using a 13×9-inch baking pan.
• Cool completely on a wire rack.

2. Prepare the Cake and Strawberries:

• Once the cake is completely cool, cut it into 1-inch cubes.
• Slice the fresh strawberries.

3. Assemble the First Layer:

• Place half of the cake cubes in a 6-quart glass punch bowl (or trifle bowl).
• Top with half of the sliced strawberries.
• Drizzle with half of the strawberry glaze.
• Spread 3 1/2 cups of the thawed whipped topping evenly over the glaze.

4. Warm the Frosting:

• In a microwave-safe bowl, heat the chocolate frosting on high for 20-30 seconds, or until pourable, stirring often.
• Cool slightly.

5. Add Frosting Drizzle (Optional):

• Drizzle half of the warmed frosting over the whipped topping layer.

6. Repeat Layers:

• Repeat the layers once more: cake cubes, remaining strawberries, remaining glaze, and remaining whipped topping.

7. Garnish (Optional):

• If desired, drizzle with the remaining warmed frosting and sprinkle with shaved chocolate.

8. Chill:

• Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
