Angel Food Delight

"I found this in a magazine, I believe it was "Quick & Easy" while waiting for an appointment. Unfortunately, I do not remember what they called it so I have just called it Angel Food Delight. It sounded too easy to be true but it was wonderful. The original recipe said to chill for an hour but I found it took longer for the flavors to merge. I liked the adaptability of using different toppings. The recipe called for 2 cans of Pie Filling but I found 1 to be sufficient. However, use your own judgement. While the flavor is rich, it is not a heavy dessert and everyone has loved it."

  1. Could you use anything else besides the pie filling as a topping? I was thinking crushed Oreos or Butterfinger Candy Bars? Thoughts

  1. I made this last night. WOW, tastes just like a "refrigerator type" cheesecake. I will make this again. I used the new "French Vanilla" cool-whip, and I did use fat-free cream cheese. I also used Lite-cherry pie filling. Even with changing the some items to the lower calorie type, it tasted 100% full of flavor. Thank you for sharing this recipe.

  3. Nice easy dessert. I used cherry pie filling and you are right - one can was plenty. Thanks for posting!
     
  4. Easy to prepare, tastes GREAT, smooth and creamy. What a nice dessert this turned out to be!! I used cherry pie filling with a little almond extract mixed in, this was a hit!
     
  5. Great! only used 1 can of cherry pie filling, but a large container of frozen whipped topping. We loved it!

Hi! I just completed my fifth move in five years and I swear they will have to haul me out with a backhoe. Actually though, one more move and then I am entrenched. Amazingly, after going cross-country, I ended up 17 miles down the road from where I started. I have four children, all grown, and nine grandchildren, six girls and three boys. I have been single for almost five years and was getting used to my solitude when I moved in with my daughter, son-in-law, three granddaughters. Now, what was that I was saying about solitude. I recently was granted Social Security Disability and made it through on the first round without a lawyer. I was in shock. Getting used to not being on the employment cycle is tough but it does give me more time to explore Zaar! I am a vorocious reader of all things, even cereal boxes. I collect rocks and anything Native American. Except for three years in Georgia, I have spent my whole life in the Pacific Northwest and wouldn't trade it for anything.
