Quick & Easy Italian Rum Cake Cups image

My daughters gave me a copy of Rachel Ray's 30 Minute Meals 2 Cookbook and of course the first thing I tried was a dessert! Her recipe actually called for double the rum quantity but I found it way too strong so I have halved that measurement.

Time 10m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

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

Steps:

  • 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!
