Growing up, my mom tried to make nearly everything fat free. That brought on some very strange varieties of desserts; however, one in particular I have grown to love over the years, Angel Fluff.
Ingredients:
- 1 Angel Food Cake
- 1 Cup Powdered Sugar
- 1 8oz Package of Low Fat Cream Cheese, softened
- 1 Container of Fat Free Cool Whip
- 1 21oz Can of Cherry Pie Filling
- Pecans (Optional)
Directions:
Start by tearing the angel food cake into small pieces, this would basically make it about 5 cups of torn pieces. Then, in a medium sized bowl mix the sugar and cream cheese, beating until well blended. Next, add in the cool whip, but be sure to reserve about 2oz for the top of the dessert. At this point, go ahead and stir the pecans into the mixture if you choose to use them, I do not use these. Also, stir in the angel food cake pieces.
In a nice large bowl, spoon 1/2 the mixture onto the bottom, top with about 3/4 of the cherry pie filling. Once you have completed this layer, add the remaining mixture and the last bit of cool whip.
Top with the last of the pie filling and sprinkle with a few more pecans and you have a nice, beautiful dessert. I like to put this in the fridge for a few hours and serve chilled.
Enjoy!

Couldn’t resist this! Looks delcious!
what if i have no powdered sugar, and regular cream cheese and cool whip? thought someone may have tried it another way!!!!!
What size cool whip? Sounds like a perfect dessert for Easter.
1 of the regular size tubs, I believe they are 8 oz.
Oh wow, this looks so good! It looks a bit like Eton Mess but with added cake!
Wow this looks so simple and sooo good! I think I’m going to try it with a strawberry/sugar mixture instead of cherry pie filling! Yum!
My favorite thing is cherry pie filling, what a great idea! I can always find something fabulous on your site. Just saved it on Ziplist.
This sounds wonderful!! How many does it serve?
I would say at least 12 depending on your serving size.
