Heaven on Earth Cake

Instructions

1. Prepare the base: Cut the angel food cake into cubes and arrange half of them in the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish.

2. Layer the cherries: Evenly spread half of the cherry pie filling over the cake layer.

3. Make the pudding: In a medium bowl, whisk together the vanilla pudding mix and milk until smooth and slightly thickened (about 2 minutes).

4. Add sour cream: Stir in the sour cream until fully combined and creamy.

5. Spread the pudding layer: Pour the pudding mixture over the cherry layer in the dish.

6. Add remaining cake & cherries: Place the remaining cake cubes on top of the pudding, followed by the rest of the cherry pie filling.

7. Top with Cool Whip: Spread the thawed Cool Whip evenly over the top using a spatula for a smooth finish.

8. Garnish (optional): Sprinkle with sliced almonds for extra crunch and elegance.

9. Chill: For best results, refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. The longer it chills, the better the flavors meld!
