Here’s a delicious and easy Heaven on Earth Cake recipe β€” a dreamy layered dessert made with angel food cake, pudding, cherry pie filling, and whipped topping. It’s light, creamy, and perfect for any occasion!


🍰 Heaven on Earth Cake

πŸ•’ Prep Time: 15 minutes (plus chill time)

🍽️ Servings: 12


βœ… Ingredients

  • 1 prepared angel food cake, cut into cubes (store-bought or homemade)

  • 1 can (21 oz) cherry pie filling

  • 1 package (3.4 oz) instant vanilla pudding mix

  • 1 Β½ cups cold milk

  • 1 cup sour cream (makes it extra creamy!)

  • 1 tub (8 oz) whipped topping (like Cool Whip), thawed

  • Optional garnishes: slivered almonds, extra cherries, or powdered sugar


πŸ”ͺ Instructions

  1. Layer the cake: In a 9×13-inch dish, spread half of the angel food cake cubes across the bottom.

  2. Add pie filling: Spoon about β…” of the cherry pie filling evenly over the cake.

  3. Add remaining cake: Layer the rest of the cake cubes on top of the cherries.

  4. Make the pudding: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the vanilla pudding mix, cold milk, and sour cream until smooth. Let sit for a minute to slightly thicken.

  5. Spread pudding layer: Pour the pudding mixture evenly over the cake and cherry layers.

  6. Top with whipped topping: Spread the Cool Whip over the pudding.

  7. Chill: Refrigerate the cake for at least 4 hours (or overnight) to allow it to set and the flavors to blend.

  8. Finish and serve: Just before serving, spoon the remaining cherry pie filling on top. Add slivered almonds or other garnishes if desired.


πŸ’‘ Tips & Variations

  • Fruit swap: Use blueberry, strawberry, or mixed berry pie filling instead of cherry.

  • Pudding twist: Try cheesecake or white chocolate pudding mix for a flavor variation.

  • Lighter version: Use sugar-free pudding and light whipped topping.
