- 8 oz cream cheese
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 8 oz (thawed if frozen) whipped topping

Carefully tear or cut the angel food cake into bite-sized pieces. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy using a hand or stand mixer.
Gradually add in the powdered sugar and continue to beat until fully combined and fluffy.
Mix in the vanilla extract.
Gently fold in the whipped topping using a spatula until well blended and smooth.
In a 9x13-inch dish, spread half of the angel food cake pieces evenly in the bottom.
Spread half of the cream cheese mixture over the cake pieces, using a spatula to smooth it out.
Spoon and spread half of the cherry pie filling evenly over the cream cheese layer.
Repeat the layers with the remaining cake pieces, cream cheese mixture, and cherry pie filling.
Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (or overnight) to allow the flavors to meld.
