Ingredients

  • 12-16 oz strawberries
  • 12 oz blueberries fresh
  • 16 oz pound cake homemade or store bought
  • 1-2 cups vanilla pudding (can be scratch-made or store-bought)
  • 2 cups Whipped Cream (can be scratch-made or store-bought)
HOMEMADE WHIPPED CREAM
  • 1 cup heavy cream cold
  • 4 TBSP powdered sugar (confectioner's sugar)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract pure

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. If using frozen pound cake, thaw according to package instructions. Cut fresh or thawed pound cake into 1-inch cubes.
  2. To make the homemade whipped cream, first place the beaters from an electric hand mixer and a large glass or stainless steel bowl in freezer. Keep cream in the fridge until ready to whip. While they chill (10-15 minutes) clean and prep berries.
  3. Once the beaters/bowl have chilled, add cold heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract to your bowl. Start mixing on low speed, increasing the speed to medium-high until soft or stiff peaks form.
  4. Let's get our trifle on! Add some cake to the bottom of a bowl or trifle dish. Top with alternating layers of pudding, whipped cream, and fuit. Repeat layers and top with a final dollop of whipped cream and sprinkling of berries. Serve immediately or store covered in refrigerator until ready to serve.

Notes

  • You can choose to make pudding and whipped cream from scratch or use store-bought versions depending on time and preference.
  • Chilling beaters and bowls before whipping helps achieve better volume and texture in homemade whipped cream.
  • This trifle is best served immediately or stored covered in refrigerator until serving to maintain texture.
  • Nutritional values may vary; adjust ingredients accordingly to fit dietary needs.
