    Recipe Introduction


    Serves 4

    Treat mom with this delicious dessert that was created especially for Mother’s Day. Crispy layers of phyllo are filled with a fluffy pudding mixture, fresh berries, and whatever else you like -- gosh!


    List of Ingredients




    Butter-flavored vegetable oil spray
    4 sheets frozen phyllo dough, thawed
    2 tablespoons sugar
    1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
    1 (3/4-ounce) box instant vanilla pudding mix
    1 3/4 cups milk
    1 cup non-dairy whipped topping
    1/4 cup chocolate syrup
    1/4 cup strawberry syrup
    1 cup sliced strawberries
    1 cup fresh blackberries


    Recipe



    Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly spray a baking sheet with vegetable oil spray; reserve. Place one sheet of phyllo on a cutting board. Lightly spray top surface with vegetable oil spray. Repeat with remaining sheets of phyllo dough. In a small bowl, mix together sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle top surface of phyllo evenly with cinnamon sugar mixture. Using a pizza cutter, cut the phyllo dough into 12 rectangles and transfer each to the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 4 to 5 minutes, or until golden brown. Place baking sheet on a cooling rack, and let phyllo cool completely. Prepare pudding according to package directions (using 1 3/4 cups milk). Let pudding mixture stand for 5 minutes, then stir in the whipped topping until combined. To assemble, drizzle 1 tablespoon of the chocolate syrup and 1 tablespoon strawberry syrup in a decorative pattern on a pretty dessert plate. Place a phyllo rectangle on top of the chocolate/strawberry design. Mix berries in a bowl. Spoon 1/4 cup of the berries on the phyllo. Spoon about 1/4 cup of the pudding mixture over the fruit. Repeat the layers one more time, ending with a layer of phyllo. Garnish with fresh mint, if desired. Repeat procedure for remaining ingredients for a total of 4 dynamite Napoleons!

    Notes: Phyllo dough is often labeled “fillo” on the packaging.
