My best friend from college sent a recipe around to a group of us recently that I think is just too good not to share. It is a slightly modern taken on a classic trifle (because they didn't have Cool Whip when trifles were first being constructed), that retains appealing traces of a 1950's ladies' luncheon. I can just imagine it being spooned out into footed glass bowls and garnished with a sprig of mint. It's also the type of dessert that if you ate the whole thing by yourself, you wouldn't need to worry, as it's mostly fruit, yogurt and air.
Heavenly (enter fruit here) Trifle
1 angel food cake
2 containers of raspberry yogurt (6 or 8 oz each - can use light version)
8 oz. container of Cool Whip* (fat free if you want)
6 oz. can of sliced peaches in juice (not heavy syrup)
sliced fruit - I often use strawberries and kiwis in the middle and then decorate with strawberries, kiwi, peaches and/or blueberries on top The rest of the instructions are after the jump. *Most of the time I would be disdainful of Cool Whip, as I can be something of a food snob, but somehow, it just seems right in this recipe.
