Heaven on Earth Cake
1 angel food cake (store-bought or homemade), cut into cubes
1 package (3.4 oz) instant vanilla pudding mix
1 1/2 cups cold milk
1 1/2 cups whipped topping (like Cool Whip)
1 can (21 oz) strawberry pie filling
1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions:
Prepare Pudding:
In a medium bowl, whisk together the vanilla pudding mix and cold milk until thickened (about 2 minutes). Gently fold in the whipped topping until smooth.
Assemble Cake Layers:
In a 9x13-inch dish, spread half of the cubed angel food cake evenly over the bottom.
In a separate bowl, mix the strawberry pie filling with the fresh sliced strawberries and lemon juice. Spoon half of this mixture over the cake layer.
Layer Pudding:
Spread half of the pudding mixture over the strawberries. Add the remaining cake cubes on top, followed by the rest of the strawberry mixture.
Finish with Pudding:
Spread the remaining pudding mixture on top, ensuring it covers the cake evenly. Optionally, sprinkle some more sliced strawberries on top.
Chill:
Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for the best flavor.
Serve:
Slice and serve chilled, enjoying the light and fruity flavors!
