The Gluten-Free Homemaker

I've given you a couple of cranberry recipes this week, and I thought I would follow with a cranberry dessert. This recipe is adapted from Bette Hagman's cranberry trifle in her book The Gluten-Free Gourmet Makes Dessert. It looks nice in a trifle bowl or other clear serving bowl.




Ingredients

1 sm. pkg. instant vanilla pudding
3-4 c. torn yellow cake
1/2 c. orange juice (or 1/4 c. o.j. and 1/4 c. rum)
16 oz. whole berry cranberry sauce
2 cans mandarin oranges, drained
whipped cream or cool whip

Instructions
Prepare the pudding according to the package instructions and chill. Place half the cake pieces in a large serving bowl. Sprinkle with half the orange juice. Top with half the cranberry sauce, oranges, and pudding. Repeat cake, juice, cranberry sauce, oranges and pudding. Chill for several hours. Top with whipped cream or cool whip before serving.
