Ingredients
- 1 quart fresh strawberries (4 cups)
- 1½ cups milk cold
- 3.4 ounce instant vanilla pudding mix (1 package)
- 8 ounce mascarpone cheese
- 2 cups instant coffee or brewed coffee, room temperature
- 2 cups Cool Whip or whipped cream
- 3 ounce ladyfingers
- 6 ounce bittersweet chocolate grated or shaved
Instructions
- Set aside one strawberry for garnish; slice the remaining strawberries, stems removed.
- In a large bowl, whisk milk and pudding mix for 2 minutes. Refrigerate for 2 minutes.
- In a mixing bowl, beat mascarpone cheese until smooth; gradually beat in 2 tablespoons coffee. Beat in pudding. Fold in cool whip.
- Dip lady fingers in coffee on both sides, as you're layering, don't dip ahead of time. Line the bottom of a 3-qt. trifle or glass serving bowl with a third of the ladyfingers. Top with a third of the sliced strawberries, grated chocolate and mascarpone mixture.
- Repeat, creating 3 layers of each, finishing off with the mascarpone cream and shaved chocolate.
- Garnish with a strawberry on top.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Notes
- If you make this a day or two ahead of time, leave the garnish strawberries off until right before you serve it.
- If you don't like vanilla pudding, use whichever type is your favourite. The flavour of the trifle will change, but it will still be good.
- If you'd like to make an adult version of this cake, try dipping the lady fingers in a coffee liquor, dark rum, or sweet sparkling wine.
- You can store this recipe covered in the fridge for up to 3 days. I don't recommend freezing this dish as once it thaws the lady fingers tend to get a little too mushy. Enjoy this trifle within the first few days of whipping it up and you'll thank me later!
