Ingredients

  • 1 angel food cake pre-made or boxed angel food cake
  • 1 can 18 ounces cherry pie filling
  • 1 box 3.6 ounces instant vanilla pudding
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 8 ounce tub of whipped cream (Cool Whip)

Instructions

  • First start by taking your angel food cake and with a serrated knife cut it into cubes. I did around 1-inch cubes.
  • Put half of the diced angel food cake in an 8x8 baking dish.
  • Then open your can of cherry pie filling and pour about 3/4 of the can on top of the angel food cake. Spread it out.
  • Next grab a bowl and add in the milk, pudding mix, and the sour cream. Whip it up until it begins to thicken. Then pour the sour cream pudding mixture over the cherry pie filling.
  • Next top with more of the angel food cake, using up the rest of it. It is okay if it doesn't fully cover the top. Press it down gently to kind of stick in the pudding.
  • Then spread your Cool Whip on top of the angel food cake, and spread to an even layer.
  • Take the remaining cherry pie filling and drop on top of the heaven on earth cake.
  • Cover and refrigerate at least 2-4 hours to allow the pudding mixture to set up. Then cut and serve up this easy dessert.

Notes

Pie Filling - You can use any flavor of pie filling you would like. Lemon, blueberry, strawberry, etc. 
Refrigerating - Allowing your dessert to refrigerate helps to ensure that you get all the flavors paired as juices soak into cake. But also that the pudding sets up well. 
Cake - If you don't want to use angel food cake, consider using pound cake or regular white cake.
