Raspberry Cheesecake Trifle

SO I wanted to make something for my RS activity.

Turns out....none of it got eaten! {there were no plates or utensils there...???}

yep! NONE!! I had to bring this ALL home and eat it myself....well, I shared with the hubby and child, but still.

it all started out with wanting to make pound cake.

I had everything I needed for it.

But then....I thought of rasperries, and pound cake and a trifle!!

well...it started with trying to do shooters...you know like the kind you get at like applebees.

nope. hubby brought home the wrong stuff and I couldn't make it. Oh well.

Trifle it was!

 So wanted to make pound cake....it sounded SO good one day and I came across this recipe above plus...this one below

I used both recipes and came up with this:

Not as brown around the edges as I thought it would be. But that's OK!

still tasted GREAT!

I love how allrecipes.com has a section where people leave comments about a recipe. they have done all the trial and error for you!

But you still need to test things out for yourself.

My oven wasn't completely cooled before putting it in, then turning on the oven and letting it cook.

it creates a nicer, browner crust.

Plus...I used margarine instead of butter. I was out and I'm preggo and it's cold here and didn't feel like going out to get it! LOL.

The pound cake as a whole was good! But it also was better when eaten the next day or so. I don't know why....??

Ingredients:

pound cake {cut into cubes}

1 large tub cool whip

1 bag frozen raspberries

1 container ready made cheesecake filling

1 package rasperry danish
