nancy's Notes:

This recipe was given to me about 30 years ago by a co-worker. It has been loved by my family all these years. When I moved to the area I am in now I shared the recipe with some friends and it has become a favorite of many people in my area.I hope you enjoy it as much as they do.

Directions

Mix powdered sugar and cream cheese together until well mixed and smooth. I use a mixer on high after gettin well mixed.

Beat in Cool Whip until very creamy and smooth. Divide in half.

Slice Angel Food cakes into thin [about 1/4 th of inch] slices

Line a 9 by 13 inch pan with slices of cake,cover with 1/2 of cream cheese mixture.

Add another layer of cake slices and remainder of cream cheese mixture.

Gently spread cherry pie filling over the top of Cool Whip. Refrigerate for a least 1 hour.

My grand son couldn't wait to eat a big piece of the cherries in the snow before he took the picture for me.He said it showed it off better.

Thank all of you for the nice comments.Hope you like it as much as our community and family does. I moved to Ky from Florida and no one had ever heard of it so I made it and took it to a community function now everyone that has had it say it is requested by their families often.A bonus is being so easy to make.
