Ingredients

2 8 oz packages of cream cheese, softened
1 ½ cups powdered sugar
16 oz whipped topping thawed if frozen
15- ounce baked angel food cake crumbled
1 teaspoon almond extract
2 15oz cans of cherry pie filling

Instructions

In a large bowl with a hand or stand mixer, beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth and well combined.
Add the whipped topping and the almond extract to the cream cheese mixture and fold it in until smooth.
Next, fold in the crumbled angel food cake. It will seem dry at first, but keep folding it in; it will moisten quickly.
Spread your mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9x13 casserole dish.
Top with the cherry pie filling and smooth it out over the top of the cream cheese mixture.
Lightly cover and chill in your refrigerator for about 1 hour.
Serve and enjoy!

Notes

You can freeze this cherry dessert! Thaw it in the refrigerator or enjoy it frozen!
Feel free to use your favorite homemade cherry pie filling recipe in place of store-bought.
Ensure the angel food cake is gently folded into the cream cheese mixture so it doesn’t become gummy.
