Berry Parfait Trifle

1 cubed angel food cake
strawberries
blackberries
blueberries
raspberries
2 8 oz cream cheese
2c. powdered sugar
1c. sour cream
1 1/2 tsp almond extract
2 tsp vanilla


Slice strawberries and sprinkle 
with 1/4 tsp almond extract and sugar
 3tbs. sugar then set aside. 
Note:
You can add the other berries in this
 but I think they get too soggy so I never do.
I wait til everything else is ready
 and it's time to layer to combine them.

In a bowl mix together:

Cream cream cheese, powdered sugar, sour cream, vanilla, and 1 1/4 tsp. almond extract.

In a separate bowl:
 Beat 2 c. heavy cream and 1tbs sugar with a little vanilla.
Whip until fluffy whip cream is made.
Reserve enough to top the trifle. Then
add the rest to the cream cheese mixture.

Fold together cubed angel food cake into the cream mixture.

Then layer:
Cream then berries.
Start and end with cream.
Cover the top with remaining whip cream 
and garnish with fresh berries. 

Another trick is instead of mixing the cream cheese, powdered sugar, sour crean and vanilla.
You can make homemade vanilla pudding and instead of vanilla add almond extract.
