Preparation

Cook pudding according to package directions using the milk. Stir in vanilla extract. Cover surface and cool completely.

Drain raspberries, reserving syrup. Slice each jelly roll into 5 pieces. Line bottom and sides of a 6-cup (1.5 L) glass trifle bowl with all but five of the slices. Brush some of the reserved syrup over the slices (part of the syrup may be replaced with sherry).

Place half the raspberries on top and cover with remaining five jelly roll slices. Brush slices with raspberry syrup or sherry. Top with remaining raspberries. Stir pudding until smooth; pour over fruit and rolls.

Chill several hours. Garnish with sweetened whipped cream if desired.
