Karma's Cherry Cheesecake

This is a recipe my family got years and years ago from my childhood piano teacher, Karma Smith.



1 whole prepared Angel Food cake
2 8oz. pkgs. cream cheese, softened
1 cup powder sugar
1 8 oz. tub cool whip
milk
2 cans cherry pie filling

In a 9x13 pan, break angel food cake into bite size pieces. In a separate bowl, mix together cream cheese and powder sugar. Mix in a splash or two of milk. Then add cool whip to cream cheese mixture; mix well. Add a little more milk to make sure mixture is spreadable. Pour over top of cake pieces. Spread evenly. Pour cherry pie filling over top of cream cheese mixture. Spread evenly. Refrigerate for several hours before serving.
