Cherries in the Snow
Source of Recipe
Aunt Saunny
1 cup powdered sugar
8-oz. cream cheese, softened
1 box (2 envelopes) Dream Whip (4 cups)
Angel Food Cake, cut up into cubes
2 cans (21-oz. each) Cherry pie filling
Chocolate sauce (recipe to follow)
Mix up the 2 envelopes of Dream Whip according to package
directions (you can mix up both envelopes together....just double the amount of
milk and vanilla). Set aside or keep in refrigerator.
Cream the powdered sugar and cream cheese (I use an electric
mixer). Fold in the prepared Dream Whip and Angel food cake cubes. Mix all
together. In a large clear bowl, layer cake mixture and then cherries.
Repeat layers ending with cherries on top. Refrigerate.
Serve with homemade chocolate sauce.
Chocolate Sauce
1 cup sugar
3 TBSP cocoa
1 TBSP. flour
1 cup boiling water
1 TBSP butter
1 tsp. vanilla
In a saucepan, mix the sugar, cocoa, and flour. Pour over this the
1 cup of boiling water and boil until thick (about 5 minutes). Take off
and add the 1 TBSP. butter and 1 tsp. vanilla.
Makes about 1 cup---you may want to make extra chocolate sauce!!
You can double the recipe and make all at once, but make sure you have a
large saucepan so that it doesn't boil over.
