Raspberry Summer Sensation (Frozen Dessert)

This is from Kraft Cooking magazine (summer 2005).

2 cups (1/2 of 1-L container) raspberry sorbet or sherbet

1 cup cold skim milk

1 pkg (4-serving size) vanilla fat-free instant pudding

3 cups thawed Cool Whip light topping

1 cup raspberries

Line 9x5 inch loaf pan with foil. Spoon sorbet into pan; freeze 10 minutes.

Pour milk into large bowl. Add dry pudding mix. Beat with wire whisk 2 minutes or until well blended. Gently stir in whipped topping. Spread pudding mixture over sorbet in pan.

Freeze 3 hours or overnight. To unmould, invert pan onto plate; remove foil. Top with raspberries just before serving. Let stand 10 to 15 minutes to soften before cutting into 12 slices.

Notes:

I made this with mango sherbet and topped it with chopped mango.

I used real whipped cream (with sugar and vanilla) instead of Cool Whip.

I didn't go fat-free or light or anything. And it was good.

I think it would need more than 15 minutes to thaw and be soft enough to slice.

Endless possible variations on this one!
