PATRIOTIC BERRY TRIFLE



Patriotic Berry Trifle image

You can change this recipe up lots of ways - use fresh made whipped cream, any mix of berries you like, and swap out the vanilla pudding for cheesecake flavor if you'd like. You can use pound cake in place of angel food cake if you prefer - but I like the light texture of the angel food cake for this one!

Time 1h15m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (1 ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix (such as Jell-O®)
2 cups cold milk
1 (8 ounce) container frozen whipped topping (such as Cool Whip®), thawed
1 (13 ounce) package angel food cake, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
2 cups fresh strawberries, sliced
1 cup blueberries
½ cup fresh raspberries

Steps:

  • Prepare the instant pudding first according to package direction by whipping the pudding with the cold milk until soft set. Refrigerate until firmed up, about 1 hour.
  • Sprinkle half of the diced angel food cake onto the bottom of a trifle bowl. Set aside a few of the blueberries, strawberries, and raspberries to decorate the top of the cake. Add half of the remaining berries evenly over the cake pieces, then spoon the set pudding on top of the berries.
  • Add the last layer of cake and any remaining berries (except those reserved for decoration). Top berries with frozen whipped topping, spreading gently to create a smooth and even surface. Use the reserved berries to decorate the top of your trifle however you'd like!
  • Serve immediately, or refrigerate until ready to serve (don't make too far in advance, as the cake will start to break down the longer it sits).

Tips:

  • Make the Cake Layers Ahead of Time: You can bake the cake layers up to 2 days in advance. Just wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and store them at room temperature.
  • Use Fresh Berries: Fresh berries will give your trifle the best flavor. If you can't find fresh berries, you can use frozen berries that have been thawed and drained.
  • Add a Layer of Chocolate Ganache: Chocolate ganache is a rich and decadent addition to any trifle. To make chocolate ganache, simply heat 1 cup of heavy cream until it is simmering. Remove from heat and add 8 ounces of semisweet chocolate, chopped. Stir until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
  • Chill the Trifle Before Serving: Chilling the trifle will help the flavors to meld and will make it easier to slice.
