Choco-Berry Bavarian Cream image

I found this recipe in one of my Hershey's chocolate recipes cookbooks a few years ago and made it for a friend's holiday party. *This picture is from the Hershey's website (I unfortunately didn't take a picture when I made it, but will do so when I make it again...maybe for this Christmas).
