Lime-Berry Mousse Trifle

Ingredients:
4-5  limes
6  ounces cream cheese, softened
2/3  cup sweetened condensed milk
1  container (12 ounces) frozen whipped topping,
  thawed, divided
3  cups assorted fresh berries, such as
  strawberries, raspberries and
 blackberries
1  frozen prepared pound cake (16 ounces),
 thawed
1  pint lime sherbet, softened
1/4   cup sliced almonds, toasted
Additional berries for garnish (optional)

Directions:
1. Slice two limes and set aside. Zest remaining
limes to measure about 1 tablespoon zest; juice
limes to measure 1/2 cup juice.

2. Whisk cream cheese, condensed milk, lime
juice and zest.  Set aside about 1/2 cup of the
whipped topping.
Gently fold in remaining whipped topping until
smooth. Slice strawberries.

3. Cut pound cake into 1-inch cubes. To assemble
trifle, place half of the pound cake cubes into
bottom of Trifle Bowl. Top with half of the
sherbet; spread evenly. Top sherbet with half of
the berries and half of the cream cheese mixture.
Arrange lime slices in a circular pattern against
inside of bowl to garnish. Repeat layers one time
with remaining pound cake cubes, sherbet, berries
and cream cheese mixture.

4. Pipe remaining whipped topping around rim of
trifle using decorator. Coarsely chop almonds
using Food Chopper; sprinkle over top of trifle
before serving. Garnish with additional berries,
if desired.

Yield: 16 servings



Cook's Tip: To toast almonds in (8-in.), cook
and stir 7-10 minutes over medium heat,
stirring frequently until toasted. Remove from
heat; cool.

Any flavor of sherbet can be used in this
recipe, if desired.

Coat additional lime slices with sugar for
a pretty garnish.
