8 3-inch angel food cakes, hollowed out
2 cups of vanilla custard or Bavarian cream (you can usually get this from your grocery store's bakery)
1 bag of semi sweet chocolate chips
2 tablespoons of canola oil
Berries for garnish
 
Place four of the angel food cakes flat side down.  In the center of each, place one fourth of the custard.  Place another cake, hollow side down.  

On a double boiler, or in 30-second increments in the microwave, melt the chocolate, incorporating the oil.  

Once the chocolate is smooth, slowly pour the chocolate over the cakes, smoothing over the sides of the cake until all the cake is covered in a thin layer of chocolate.  Gently place berries on top of cake, being careful to not place too many berries near the edges. 

Let cool until chocolate is firm.
 
Serves four.
