Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 angel food cake
1 box of vanilla pudding, (5 oz.)
12 oz cool whip
3 large heath candy bars, crushed

Steps:

  • 1. Break angel food cake into bite size pieces. Put in a 9x13-inch pan. Mix pudding according to directions. Spoon over pieces of cake. Top with cool whip. Sprinkle candy on top. Chill.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid any mishaps.
  • Use room temperature ingredients: This will help your cake rise evenly and prevent it from becoming dense or dry.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the cake tough and rubbery. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake in a preheated oven: This will help the cake rise evenly and prevent it from sinking in the middle.
  • Don't open the oven door during baking: This can cause the cake to fall.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help the frosting set properly and prevent it from melting.

Conclusion:

Candy angel cake is a delicious and versatile dessert that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With its light and fluffy texture, delicate flavor, and customizable decorations, it's perfect for any occasion. Whether you're a seasoned baker or a beginner, these tips will help you create a candy angel cake that is sure to impress.
