I was just about to post a very similar recipe when I saw this one. The only difference with mine is that I whip up my own unsweetened whipped cream instead of Cool Whip. Even with the unsweetened whipped cream it is still a very rich dessert, and a little too sweet for my personal taste. But it is always well received and eaten right up!

I highly recommend this recipe for anyone looking for an easy, rich dessert. I have made it 3 times for get togethers in the past 2 months, and have gotten raves each time. To dress it up, I layered it in a trifle bowl, and I also substituted french vanilla Cool Whip, just as a different flavor.
