  3. Beat cream in a chilled glass or metal bowl with an electric mixer until soft peaks form, fold whipped cream into raspberry mixture.

  4. Pour about 1/4 cup of raspberry mixture into prepared pan. Place 1/3 of cake chunks into pan, pour 1/3 of remaining raspberry mixture over cake. Repeat layering with remaining ingredients, ending with the raspberry mixture. Chill in refrigerator until firm, about 2 hours.

Recipe Note

Light-tasting and delicious! My mother's famous dessert recipe has completed many holiday meals and makes a stunning summery cake. This works beautifully with strawberries as well.
