substituted angel food cake, used frozen blackberries, raspberries,strawberries, which i mixed with some berry jam and a bit of water...used the immersion blender to make it less chunky...used 3 low fat cream cheese, and pint of heavy cream, less sugar in the heavy cream/cream cheese mixture...made it the night before i needed it....it was great, you can modify as needed...i messed up and got too much cocoa in one spot, but other than that we loved it!!

Yummy! I added some vanilla pudding as per another reviewer. Everyone loved it. I personally did not like the cream cheese in it. I would use half the amt. next time. I also added some blackberry's to it and used homemade pound cake.. It was super easy to make. I would make it again.

This is such an awesome dessert. I had a great time making it and eating it. I made my own pound cake (grandmothers pound cake II) also used 2 quarts of fresh respberries sprinkled with a 1/3 c sugar and threw in some fresh blueberries.

I have made this for the last 7 Christmases. It is a big hit always. I use fresh raspberries and fresh lemon juice. I spread raspberry jam on pound cake, since I don't have juice from frozen fruit.

Incredible! A little more work than instant pudding, but so much worth it. I would recommend wiping the inside of the bowl between layers so you can see the layers of fruit through the glass, otherwise the cream covers up the look. Enjoy!

Easy and excellent! I made this for my husband's work potluck. They all loved it! I used only frozen strawberries, and used light cream cheese, but it was a big hit. I only wish I would have sent the recipe along with it, thus eliminating the step of having to send it along the next day due to numerous requests.

I like to rate recipes as they're written As is, this is an ok starter. But should definitely be tweaked as several reviewers suggested and increase the cream cheese mixture. Also, the only frozen raspberries available to me at time of making this had no sugar added. I definitely would say that they needed sugar.
