Quick & Easy Italian Rum Cake Cups - cooking recipe

Ingredients

8 ladyfingers
1 1/2 fluid ounces rum
2 cups prepared vanilla pudding
8 large juicy ripe strawberries, sliced
1 teaspoon sugar
1 (2 ounce) package almonds, sliced (I would toast them next time)
Cool Whip or heavy cream

Preparation

Separate 8 ladyfingers on work area.
Using a pastry brush, paint the ladyfingers with the rum as mentioned, I have halved this original qty- her recipe calls for 3 oz.
Line small glass dessert cups with the ladyfingers.
Top with heaping spoonfuls of prepared vanilla instant pudding (about 1/2 cup) per dish.
Sprinkle sliced strawberries with sugar and toss to coat.
Top the dessert cups with the strawberries and a dollup of coolwhip/heavy cream and sprinkle with almonds.
Serve, or chill until dessert time.
Enjoy!
