Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1-2 angel food cake store-bought or homemade, cubed
  • 3.4 oz instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 1 1/2 cups milk cold
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 21 oz cherry pie filling divided
  • 8 oz whipped topping thawed
  • almond slivers toasted, optional garnish

Method
 

  1. Cube angel food cake into bite-sized pieces.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together pudding mix and cold milk until smooth. Fold in Greek yogurt until fully combined.
  3. Spread half of the cake cubes evenly in a 9x13-inch dish. Top with about 2/3 of the cherry pie filling.
  4. Add remaining cake cubes on top, then pour pudding mixture over and spread evenly.
  5. Spread whipped topping over pudding layer. Drizzle remaining cherry filling on top and sprinkle with almonds if using.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight before serving.

Notes

Swap cherry filling with blueberry or strawberry for variation. Chill overnight for best texture and flavor.
