Raspberry Cream Torte
"This was found in the August/September 2005 issue of Taste of Home. I have modified it for convience and reduced calories. This is a great way to dress up a prepared angel food cake and a great dessert recipe for beginners."
- Ready In:
- 20mins
- Ingredients:
- 6
- Yields:
-
1 cake
- Serves:
- 10
ingredients
- 1 prepared angel food cake (If you prefer to make your own-wonderful)
- 1 (12 ounce) carton frozen whipped topping (you can substitute sugar or fat free here)
- 1 (6 ounce) carton raspberry yogurt (again substitute low fat or sugar)
- 1⁄3 cup confectioners' sugar (powder Splenda can be substituted here)
- 1 pint fresh raspberry (or berry of choice)
- 1⁄2 cup raspberry preserves (more if desired)
directions
- If you are making your own angel food cake, prepare and bake as usual. If using a prepared angel food cake slice horizontally in half. Additional layers can be added, but I like to keep it simple.
- Combine and fold gently the thawed whipped topping, yogurt, and confectioner's sugar or Splenda. Frost the bottom layer and thinly spread raspberry preserves, if desired.
- Place the top of the cake on and frost the rest of the cake. Garnish with fresh raspberries. If desired, warm the remaining preserves in the microwave until the constistancy is spreadable and stroke or swipe the melted preserves around the sides of the cake with a clean paint brush or pastry brush.

<p>I live in Arizona. Cooking is a relaxing hobby and I love finding healthy meals that have a lot of flavor and heart to them. Recipezaar has not let me down. I could not possibly pick a favorite cookbook. I love searching used bookstores for old cookbooks. I collect other cookbooks that look intresting or have healthy dishes. My collection is modest, but I love it. Also, I love the Taste of Home magazines. They have real food that real people cook. I would have to say my pet peeves are people who drive while talking on cell phones and people who cannot spell potato. It is p o t a t o not p o t a t o e. There is no e unless you are spelling the plural form of potato which is potatoes. I frequently see that word mispelled in recipes and it makes me think the recipe is somehow devalued because of the spellings. The Zaar system of ratings works for me. I do try to explain myself in my reviews and welcome any questions or comments on what I have said. It is not my intention to be mean-spirited if I did not like something (it is rare for me not to like a recipe though):) Recipezaar brings such a nice element to my life and I feel it has been enriched by the wealth of knowledge both in everyone's contributed recipes and on the forums. Also, it is such a nice feature that you can log on practically any time to get help with a recipe or ingredient that might otherwise be imtimidating to prepare by yourself.</p>
