This recipe brought back wonderful memories I have of a similar dessert my grandmother made when she was hostess at her house for the neighborhood club (this was a group of rural farming ladies who called the club "Mutual Benefit Club", much like those clubs all across the farm country in the early 20th century when folks got together to help each other). Her recipe was a little different; she used fruit cocktail and whipped cream (the cream readily available in the cool room), but she, too, used angel food cake. My sisters an I loved it when we on the farm when there was club meeting because we would get this wonderful dessert. I never knew what it was called, but when we were adults and made it from memory, we called it "Club". Thanks for posting your recipe, lisajane.
