Berry Trifle


I made this Berry Trifle for a festive 4th of July dessert.  The few changes that I made were to add 1 tsp vanilla to the cream when whipping it, to double the almond extract, and to use neufatchel cheese for the cream cheese.  I also followed the advice of several reviewers and beat the cream cheese and whipped cream separate, keeping the whipping cream cold, and then folded them together.  This trifle turned out well, but will not be something I make all too often because it is definitely on the pricey side for a dessert.  Also, my trifle dish must be small (I didn't know the size of it's capacity) because only about half the recipe fit, so next time I'd halve the recipe.  This amount still fed a decent sized group at a cookout.
