BLUEBERRY ANGEL FOOD CAKE INGREDIENTS

You will need:

• 1 angel food cake (a pre-made cake or bake a boxed angel food cake mix & let it cool)
• 1 can (21 ounces) blueberry pie filling
• 1 package (4-serving) instant vanilla pudding mix (102 grams, 3.6 ounces) 
• 1 ½ cups milk (2%)
• 1 cup sour cream
• 8 ounces Cool Whip

SUBSTITUTIONS AND ADDITIONS

Pie Filling: Instead of blueberry pie filling, you could choose from so many other great flavors of fruit filling. Try raspberry, cherry, or even lemon. How about trying apple pie filling in the fall? Or try our Strawberry Angel Food Cake!

Lemon: Lemon and blueberry is such a delightful combination. You could add little hints of lemon throughout this dessert for a yummy lemon blueberry version. Use lemon pudding in place of the vanilla pudding. Or how about adding a little bit of lemon juice or lemon zest to the cake batter?

Cake: You could swap out the plain angel food cake for pound cake, chocolate cake, vanilla sponge cake or even brownies. You can even make homemade angel food cake if you have a tried and true recipe you prefer. 

Pudding: If you are changing up the filling or cake, you could also pick a different pudding flavor. The sky’s the limit with this cake!

Cool Whip: If you prefer homemade whipped cream, it would work fine in place of the Cool Whip.

Sour Cream: If you prefer, you could also substitute plain greek yogurt for the sour cream in this recipe.

Alcohol: If you are serving this cake to adults, you could soak the cake cubes in sherry or wine first for a grown-up version.

HOW TO MAKE THIS BLUEBERRY ANGEL FOOD CAKE RECIPE

STEP ONE: Cut the cooled angel food cake into 1-inch cubes. 

PRO TIP: If you are baking the cake yourself for this recipe, make sure to let it cool to room temperature before cutting it so that it doesn’t make the other ingredients too warm.

PRO TIP: The best knife to use when cutting angel food cake is one with a serrated blade, it will cut the cake easier, and you won’t lose the airy, fluffy texture of the cake.

STEP TWO: Layer half of the cake pieces evenly in the bottom of a 9×9 cake pan (metal or glass).

PRO TIP: If you have a trifle dish and are serving this at a potluck, the trifle bowl would show the fancy layers of this dessert even better.

STEP THREE: Spread 2/3 of the blueberry pie filling evenly over the entire cake. 

STEP FOUR: Layer the last half of the angel food cake cubes over the blueberry pie filling.

STEP FIVE: In a medium bowl using a stand mixer or an electric mixer on medium speed, combine the pudding mix, milk, and sour cream until smooth (about 2 minutes).

STEP SIX: Spread the creamy mixture evenly over the top of the cake.

STEP SEVEN: Use a small offset spatula to spread the Cool Whip evenly over top of the pudding layer.

STEP EIGHT: Drop and spread the rest of the blueberry pie filling over the top of the whipped cream layer. 

STEP NINE: Place in the fridge and let chill 4 to 5 hours before serving. 

PRO TIP: This cake needs at least 4 to 5 hours in the fridge so that the layers of cake can soak up all of the flavors. Overnight is even better.

HOW TO SERVE

Scoop our blueberry angel food cake trifle onto a plate or into bowls and add fresh blueberries or other fresh fruit and another dollop of whipped cream on top. How about adding vanilla ice cream on the side? You will undoubtedly receive high praise no matter how you choose to serve it!

Make this heavenly blueberries and cream angel food cake dessert for an easy summertime treat alongside our iced tea, raspberry iced tea, sweet peach iced tea, or our southern strawberry sweet tea to wash it down.

STORAGE

IN THE FRIDGE: Store the leftovers of this blueberry angel dessert in the refrigerator in a sealed food storage container or covered in plastic wrap or aluminum foil for 1 to 2 days.
