Angel Food Dessert With Whipped Topping

Submitted by Chef #790437

"This recipe was given to me by a friend and I made it for the first time last week. It was amazingly light but filling as angel food cake can be. Try experimenting with different flavored yogurts. The next time I make it, I think I'll use lemon!"
