Beverly's Notes:

Mom often made this for Easter dessert. It was the yummiest part of Easter dinner, and the easiest part to prepare! Let the kids help with this one. Have fun and enjoy!

Directions

Using a bread knife, slice the angel food cake into three layers. (I've used both store-bought & baked-from-a-mix.)

Spread whipped topping over bottom layer, then layer on half of the pineapple. Repeat for second layer, then put top layer in place.

"Ice" the entire cake with the rest of the whipped topping. Depending on how big your cake was, and how much topping you used for the layers, you may need to use part of a second container of whipped topping. This recipe could be made using "light" whipped topping to cut some calories, if you wish.

Decorate the top and sides of the cake with mandarin orange slices. Serve right away or chill first. Store, covered, in refrigerator.

Oh, I'm not surprised to learn that a recipe this simple has been shared before. One of Mom's church friends likely shared this with her many years ago when I was a child (I'm 50 now). I always loved it, and posted it to honor her memory.
