How to Make Paula Deen's Cherry Cheese Trifle
- In a medium bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese and sweetened condensed milk with an electric mixer until completely smooth and creamy.
- Gently stir in 1/2 of the whipped topping and the almond extract.
- Set aside 1/2 of the cream cheese mixture for later. Keep the other 1/2 in bowl for layering.
- Tear the angel food cake into approximately 1-inch pieces.
- Place 1/3 of the cake pieces in the bottom of a trifle bowl or large serving dish.
- Spoon 1/3 of the cream cheese filling over the cake layer.
- Top with 1/3 of the cherry pie filling.
- Repeat layers twice more: cake, cream cheese filling, and pie filling.
- Spread the remaining whipped topping evenly over the top of the trifle, ensuring it is sealed to the edges.
- Garnish with the remaining cherry pie filling and sliced almonds (if desired).
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld.
