    Split ladyfingers horizontally in half; spread each half with raspberry preserves. Layer one-fourth of the ladyfingers, cut sides up, 1 1/2 cups of the raspberries and half of the pudding in 2-quart serving bowl. Repeat layers once using remaining 1 1/2 cups raspberries. Arrange remaining ladyfingers around edge of bowl in upright position with cut sides toward center. (It may be necessary to gently ease ladyfingers down into pudding about 1 inch so they remain upright.)
