"This lovely layered dessert is my husband's favorite," relates Karen Bourne of Magrath, Alberta. "I always make it for our Christmas dinner, but it's excellent after any special meal."

12-15 ServingsPrep: 20 min. + chilling

Ingredients

1 loaf (10-3/4 ounces) frozen pound cake
1-1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
3/4 cup sugar, divided
2 packages (8 ounces each) cream cheese, softened
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 packages (10 ounces each) frozen sweetened raspberries, thawed
2 tablespoons baking cocoa
Fresh raspberries, optional

Directions

Slice cake into 18-20 slices about 1/2 in. thick; set aside.
In a bowl, beat cream with 1/4 cup sugar until stiff peaks form. In
another bowl, beat cream cheese, lemon juice, vanilla and the
remaining sugar. Fold in 2 cups of the whipped cream; set remaining
whipped cream aside for topping. Drain raspberries, reserving juice;
set berries aside.
Line the bottom of a 3-qt. glass bowl with a third of the cake

fourth of the cream cheese mixture. Sift a fourth of the cocoa over
the top. Sprinkle with a third of the berries. Repeat layers twice.
