Ingredients
  

  • 1 large prepared angel food cake
  • 1 package 3.4 oz instant cheesecake pudding mix
  • cups milk
  • 1 cup sour cream or plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 can 30 oz cherry pie filling
  • 1 container 8 oz Cool Whip, thawed
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sliced almonds optional

Equipment

  • 9×13-inch baking dish

Method
 

  1. Cut the angel food cake into cubes.
  2. Whisk pudding mix, milk, sour cream, and vanilla until smooth and beginning to thicken.
  3. In a 9×13-inch dish, layer half the cake cubes, half the cherry pie filling, and the remaining cake cubes.
  4. Pour the pudding mixture evenly over the cake. Spread Cool Whip over the pudding. Top with the remaining cherry pie filling.
  5. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight. Sprinkle with toasted almonds just before serving. Slice and serve cold.

Notes

Use instant pudding only. Overnight chill gives the best texture. Keep refrigerated. Excellent make-ahead potluck dessert. Light, creamy, and always a hit.
