Yummy Wednesday - White Chocolate Strawberry Trifle

Another AWESOME recipe from that funny little cookbook... "Intercourses: An Aphrodisiac Cookbook" by Martha Hopkins and Randall Lockridge. The hubby scarffed this one faster than I've ever seen him eat a dessert! His comment? "It's like strawberry shortcake - but so much more!"White Chocolate Strawberry Trifle
