A delightful cherry dessert featuring angel food cake, creamy vanilla pudding, and sweet cherry pie filling.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 angel food cake (about 1012 oz)
  • 1 can cherry pie filling (540 milliliters, 18 ounces)
  • 1 package (4-serving) instant vanilla pudding mix (102 grams, 3.6 ounces)
  • 1 and 1/2 cups (360 milliliters) milk (2 percent)
  • 1 cup (240 milliliters) sour cream
  • 8 ounces (approximately 1 container) Cool Whip
  • Sliced almonds (optional garnish)

Instructions

  1. Cut the cooled angel food cake into 1-inch cubes.
  2. Layer half of the cake pieces evenly in the bottom of a 9×9 inch cake pan.
  3. Spread 2/3 of the cherry pie filling over the cake cubes.
  4. Add the remaining half of the cake cubes on top of the cherry pie filling.
  5. In a bowl, mix the vanilla pudding mix, milk, and sour cream until smooth.
  6. Spread the pudding mixture evenly over the top layer of cake.
  7. Carefully spread Cool Whip evenly over the pudding layer.
  8. Drop and spread the rest of the cherry pie filling over the Cool Whip layer.
  9. Cover the cake and chill in the refrigerator for 4 to 5 hours before serving.
  10. Before serving, sprinkle slivered almonds on top as an optional garnish.

Notes

Ensure your angel food cake is completely cooled before cutting for clean slices. This cake does not freeze well due to the creaminess of the layers.
