Description

Cherry Angel Cloud Cake is a light, fluffy dessert combining the airy texture of angel food cake with a sweet cherry topping and creamy whipped topping. Perfect for summer gatherings, this dessert offers a burst of cherry flavor with every bite and is easy to prepare using a boxed angel food cake mix.


Ingredients

Cake Base

  • 1 box angel food cake mix (follow package instructions for preparation)
  • 1 can cherry pie filling (use a high-quality brand for best taste)
  • 1 tub whipped topping (thaw before using)


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven according to the temperature specified on the angel food cake mix package to ensure proper baking conditions.
  2. Prepare Cake Batter: Prepare the angel food cake mix as per the package instructions, usually involving whipping the mix with water until stiff peaks form.
  3. Bake Cake: Pour the prepared cake batter into a Bundt pan and bake as directed on the cake mix package for about 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  4. Cool Cake: Allow the cake to cool completely in the pan at room temperature to maintain structure and prevent crumbling when removed.
  5. Add Toppings: Once cooled, carefully remove the cake from the Bundt pan, spread the cherry pie filling evenly over the top, and finish by spreading the whipped topping before serving.

Notes

  • This cake is perfect for summer gatherings and light desserts.
  • You can substitute the cherry pie filling with any favorite fruit topping such as blueberry, strawberry, or mixed berry for a different twist.
  • Ensure the whipped topping is fully thawed and chilled for best texture.
  • For a more decorative look, garnish with fresh cherries or mint leaves if desired.
