From Quick Cooking 2001 recipe Light and refreshing dessert. Very pretty in a trifle bowl. Leave time for trifle to chill for at least 4 hours before serving. Note: Not sure of the size of a normal envelope of dry whipped topping mix - just the standard size is needed. You can use a store bought angel food cake or make one at home. Ingredients:
10 inches round pre-made angel food cake (store bought or homemade, your choice) |
1 3/4 cups cold milk |
1 (3 1/2 ounce) package vanilla instant pudding mix |
1 (1/2 ounce) envelope whipped dessert topping mix |
1/2 cup cold milk |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract |
2 tablespoons maraschino cherry juice |
1 (21 ounce) can cherry pie filling |
3/4 cup chocolate syrup |
1/2 cup flaked coconut, toasted |
1/4 cup sliced almonds, toasted |
Directions:
1. In a mixing bowl, combine the 1 3/4 cups of milk and pudding mix. Beat on low speed for 2 minutes or until thickened. 2. In another bowl, beat whipped topping mix, vanilla and the 1/2 cup remaining milk until stiff peaks form. 3. Cut cake into 1/2 inch cubes and place half in a 3 quart glass trifle bowl. 4. Sprinkle with 1 tbls cherry juice. 5. Top with half of the pie filling, half of the prepared pudding and 1/4 cup of the chocolate syrup. 6. Repeat layers. 7. Top with whipping topping and remaining syrup. 8. Sprinkle with coconut and almonds. 9. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving. |
