You guys, this dessert is so easy to make! All you do is rip up an angel food cake and toss it into a bowl with the other ingredients! I mean, sure you could make your own angel food cake but if you don’t have time for knocking around in the kitchen this recipe will certainly be a Godsend. I made this once for the elderly couple who lives across the street from me and they loved it! It made me happy to see them so very happy.
Anyway, if you are looking for a sweet treat and don’t want to put in a whole lot of effort this is the dessert for you!
Ingredients
1 angel food cake
1 cup Domino powdered sugar
1 (8 ounce) package Philadelphia low-fat cream cheese, softened
1 container fat-free Cool Whip
1 can (21 ounce) Comstock cherry pie filling
pecans, optional
Instructions
Tear the angel food cake into small pieces( about 5 cups of pieces).
Combine the sugar and cream cheese, beating until well blended.
Add the whipped topping, but be sure to reserve about 2 oz. for the top of the dessert. Go ahead and stir the pecans into the mixture if you choose to use them. Also, stir in the angel food cake pieces.
In a nice large bowl, spoon 1/2 the mixture onto the bottom, top with about 3/4 of the cherry pie filling.
Add the remaining mixture and the last bit of cool whip.
Top with the last of the pie filling and sprinkle with a few more pecans and you have a nice, beautiful dessert. Serve chilled.
