🍒 Heaven on Earth Cake
🌤️ Ingredients
-
1 (10-inch) angel food cake, cut into cubes (store-bought or homemade)
-
1 (21 oz) can cherry pie filling (or your favorite fruit pie filling)
-
1 (3.4 oz) box instant vanilla pudding mix (or white chocolate pudding)
-
1½ cups cold milk
-
1 cup sour cream (makes it rich and tangy — you can use Greek yogurt instead)
-
1 (8 oz) tub whipped topping (Cool Whip), thawed
-
Optional garnish: toasted almonds, coconut flakes, or extra cherries
🍰 Instructions
-
Prepare the pudding mixture:
-
In a bowl, whisk together pudding mix, milk, and sour cream until smooth and slightly thickened.
-
Set aside.
-
-
Assemble the layers:
-
In a 9×13-inch dish, place half of the angel food cake cubes in an even layer.
-
Spoon half of the cherry pie filling over the cake.
-
Add the remaining cake cubes on top.
-
Spread the pudding mixture evenly over the second cake layer.
-
-
Top it off:
-
Spread whipped topping evenly over the pudding layer.
-
Spoon the remaining cherry pie filling in swirls on top (or drizzle for a pretty effect).
-
-
Chill:
-
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, so the flavors soak together and the texture sets.
-
🍒 Serving Tips
-
Serve cold — it tastes like a cherry trifle and melts in your mouth.
-
For extra flair, top with toasted sliced almonds, fresh cherries, or white chocolate shavings.
