Notes

PRO TIP: This dessert is such a pretty color, using a see-through bowl such as a trifle bowl would be a great way to show off the lovely pink color.

PRO TIP: Stir all of the ingredients together carefully as you don’t want to break apart the fruit pieces.

PRO TIP: For best results, make sure you give your cherry pie fluff at least 2 hours of chilling time. It allows all of the yummy flavors to blend together.
