Raspberry Amaretto Angel Trifle
"The amaretto adds a subtle flavour to this light tasting dessert. Quick and easy to make as it only needs to chill for 30 minutes. The original recipe calls for 1 3.3 oz pkg of instant white chocolate pudding mix which I have yet to find in my grocery stores and 1/2 cup fat free milk. I have substituted PC's Devon Custard or in French "Creme Anglaise du Devon" for the white chocolate pudding. I also added fresh raspberries and kiwi to jazz it up. Do not make the day before or the cake may become soggy. Cooking time is for chilling. Original recipe source:Cooking Light"

Thanks for sending this recipe - it looks wonderful and we love the flavor of Amaretto. I think I prefer your version made with Devon Creme. You can buy white chocolate pudding in Walmart, but we don't care for instant puddings. Thanks again. Maybe when I have a chance to make this I will be able to rate it 5.

I live in Ontario and work full time as a consultant in IT for a communication company in another province. I create test cases and scripts and initiate the testing for the software changes that the programmers make to the company’s various programs. I have the pleasure of working from my home and dialling into their network. I also sell Avon for fun.
I met my husband (Paul) on a blind date. We dated 3 years and have been married for 25 years. We have two children a son(age 20) and a DD(age 17). We have been blessed with the best two kids anyone could ask for.
DH is a commerical airline pilot and currently is a "Check Pilot" on the A320. He is away quite a bit, so when he comes home I try to make sure he has a decent meal. He eats out when on the road so he really enjoys a good home cooked meal when he arrives home, while the rest of us want to go and eat out.
I love to spend time in my garden, travel and try new recipes. DH and I love to travel or just spend time at a cottage in the summer. I have not been on a cruise but hope to within the next 2 years (maybe for our 25th wedding anniversary.)
We pretty much eat anything. DH especially loves seafood (more than I do.) while I prefer to eat chicken. We are so predicable when ordering our meal at a restaurant. Next, I think it would have to be Italian and then something spicy like Thai or Indian. My family loves Indian food but I have never had the courage to make it. Maybe I will someday.
I like to read true stories and criminal books. David Baldacci is one of my favourite authors.
My favorite restaurant is "Bin 23", "Einsteins Cafe," "Abberfolye Mill"
My brother sent me the link to Recipezaar and now I am hooked trying new recipes every day. I don't think I will buy another cook book.
