Did you know the recipe for trifle first came to America via British settlers who lived in the coastal regions of the Southern part of the United States? The dessert took hold there and is still a popular dessert among Southerners today!

How To Make cherry trifle

  • 1
    Cut or break apart angel food cake into pieces and place half the pieces in a large, clear, glass bowl.

    NOTE: As pictured, I used two cans of pie filling, making a second layer of cherry because my husband loves cherry pie filling, but the original recipe only called for 1 can on top.
