Tear the angel food cake into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat with an electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form, about 3-5 minutes.
Gently fold the sweetened condensed milk into the whipped cream mixture using a spatula until well combined.
If using maraschino cherries, fold in the chopped cherries to add a pop of color and flavor.
Layer the bottom of a 9-inch round or bowl-shaped serving dish with a layer of the torn angel food cake pieces.
Spread a generous layer of the whipped cream mixture on top of the cake pieces to cover them completely.
Sprinkle a layer of the mini marshmallows followed by a layer of shredded coconut over the whipped cream mixture.
Repeat these layers (cake, whipped cream, marshmallows, coconut) until you run out of ingredients, finishing with a layer of shredded coconut on top.
Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld together.
Once chilled, remove from the refrigerator, slice, and serve. Enjoy your Snowball Cake!
