Ingredients

  • 1 prepared Angel Food Cake store bought or make a boxed angel food cake mix and let it cool
  • 1 can cherry pie filling (21 oz.)
  • 1 Instant Vanilla Pudding Mix 3.4 oz (just the mix – do not prepare based on the box instructions)
  • 1 ½ cups Milk
  • 1 cup Sour Cream or plain greek yogurt
  • 8 oz Whipped Topping Cool Whip, thawed
  • 1 Tbsp Almond Slices toasted

Instructions

  • Cut the angel food cake into bite size pieces (approximately 1 inch cubes).
  • Layer half of the cake pieces in the bottom of a 9X13 baking pan.  Top with 2/3 of the can of the cherry pie filling.
  • Then top with the remaining cake pieces.
  • Whisk together the milk and the pudding.  Then mix in the sour cream until well combined.
  • Then spread this mixture evenly on top of your cake.  You will need to work quickly on this step as the pudding will thicken as it sits.
  • Then spread the whipped topping on top of the pudding layer on the cake.
  • Top the cake with the remaining cherry pie filling.
  • Refrigerate for 4-5 hours before serving. Top with the toasted almond slices when serving and enjoy!

Notes

Store any leftover cake in the refrigerator (covered) for up to 4-5 days.  Make sure that you chill the cake for 4-5 hours before serving so that all the flavors can combine and the pudding layer can set fully.  It’s ok to let the cake sit overnight before serving as well.
