Ingredients

  • 1 pt custard (Bird's, made with 2% milk)
  • 2 package ladyfingers
  • 10 oz raspberry pie filling
  • 0.5 c cranberry and raspberry fruit juice
  • 1 pt heavy whipping cream
  • sugar sprinkles (optional)

Instructions

1. Make the custard with 2% milk - NOT whole milk as that will make it too thick!
2. Cover the bottom of a large bowl with ladyfingers, breaking them up to fit if necessary.
3. Generously drizzle fruit juice over the ladyfingers, then lightly cover with pie filling. Pour over enough custard to cover.
4. Repeat the layers at least one more time, ending with a layer of custard.
5. Cover and refridgerate for up to 24 hours.
6. Before serving, beat the cream with a stand mixer until thickened. Spoon over the top layer of custard until thickly covered. Optionally decorate with sugar sprinkles.
7. Eat within 3 days.
