Three Berry Trifle

This past week I found a recipe online for a berry trifle. It sounded really yummy, so I tried it, making a few substitutions, in order to use some items I already had at home. After getting a somewhat disappointing result [good, but very sweet], I have revised the recipe so much that is it similar to many other berry trifle recipes out there. So, here is my version, though the photos you see [primarily the finished product] may look a bit different than the one that you will make...if you care to try it :) I know I will try this again, though I am confident this new version will be fantastic!

Ingredients:

• 2 Cups of cubed almond flavored pound cake
• 2 Packages [3 oz.] of instant vanilla pudding
• ½ Cup frozen [or fresh] blueberries
• ½ Cup frozen [or fresh] raspberries
• ½ Cup frozen [or fresh] marionberries
• 2 Tbsp Amaretto liquor [optional]
• 1 Can whipped cream

Directions:

Evenly distribute cubed pound cake into either 4 glass cups or 1 medium-large sized glass bowl.

Prepare vanilla pudding according to the package instructions.

While the pudding is cooling, layer the three different berries on top of the cubed pound cake. Then, dribble the amaretto liquor over the berries and cubed almond cake [approximately ½ tbsp over each glass cup].

Next, gently spoon pudding on top of the berries. Refrigerate until cool.

Finally, add whipped cream and a berry on top [for a pretty garnish], serve, and enjoy!

Serves 4-6 [depending on glass cup or bowl size].
