Berry Napoleon Cake

SUMMER!!!

Already got sunburn, went to a guido hangout (how the floor was wet without any rain I'll never know), ate a fried twinkie, saw fireworks, and bounced around the multiplex when only paying for one movie.

Summer to do list:

Be tan

Get a job

Become a superhero

Rock Climb

Read the Game of Thrones series

And make a lot of treats

Berry Napoleon Cake

1/2 cup Amaretto

6 tablespoons of sugar, divided

1 pint raspberries

1 pint blackberries

1 pint strawberries, quartered

1 package mascarpone

2 cups heavy cream

1 tablespoon vanilla

1 vanilla pound cake

What you do:

In a bowl, microwave the Amaretto and 2 tablespoons of sugar for 4 minutes, to make a nice syrup. Toss the raspberries, blackberries, and strawberries together in the syrup with 2 more tablespoons of sugar. In a bowl with an electric mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, whip the mascarpone, heavy cream, vanilla, and 2 tablespoons of sugar together until stiff peaks form. Slice the pound cake horizontally into four pieces.

Now assemble, take one slice of cake, spread the whipped cream on top, cover it with the berries, then press another piece of cake on top. Keep doing this until all of the ingredients are used.
