Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large (store-bought or homemade) Angel food cake
- 21 ounces Cherry pie filling
- 3.4 ounces Vanilla instant pudding mix
- 2 cups Whole milk
- 16 ounces Whipped topping (thawed)
- 1 cup Fresh cherries (pitted, for garnish)
- 1 tablespoon Almond slivers (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Cut the angel food cake into 1-inch cubes and set aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the vanilla instant pudding mix and milk until thickened, about 2 minutes. Let it rest for 5 minutes to fully set.
In a trifle bowl or large glass serving dish, assemble the first layer by evenly spreading one-third of the angel food cake cubes over the bottom.
Top the cake layer with one-third of the cherry pie filling, spreading it evenly.
Spoon one-third of the prepared vanilla pudding over the cherry layer and spread it smooth.
Follow by adding one-third of the whipped topping on top of the pudding, creating an even layer.
Repeat the layering process two more times, using the remaining ingredients and finishing with a final layer of whipped topping on top.
Garnish the top with fresh cherries and sprinkle almond slivers, if desired.
Cover the trifle with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and dessert to chill.
Serve chilled and enjoy this light and fruity treat!
