"I made this special dessert for my husband on Valentine's Day, and he really enjoyed it," relates Suzanne Zick of Iron Station, North Carolina. "It's pretty simple and tastes wonderful!" In the Taste of Home Test Kitchen, the word was "Yum!" when we tried this refrigerator torte. Tucked inside the chocolate crumb crust is a fluffy chocolate filling with a layer of fresh berries.

I made this recipe the filling was thick like glue, would not spread any suggestions of what could of went wrong, i used cool whip and the sour cream and 40 grams of jello chocolate fat free instant pudding. I don;t know if the 40 grams would equal the 3.9 ounces of chocolate,help please. Thanks

I have made this recipe numerous times and it is excellent...I always use fresh whipped cream as well instead of frozen whipped topping...

This delicious dessert is easy to prepare and has become a family favorite. I have also made it using cherry pie filling when I had no strawberries, and that was very good too.
