Categories     dessert

Time 43m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pint blueberries
1 pint strawberries, hulled and cut into thick slices
2 pint raspberries
1 lemon, juiced
1/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 quart whipping cream
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 (11-ounce) jar lemon curd
1 store bought pound cake, sliced 1/2-inch thick

Steps:

  • Place the berries into a large bowl and sprinkle with half of the lemon juice. Lightly toss.
  • Combine the berries, sugar, cornstarch and remaining lemon juice in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a simmer and cook just until the berries begin to break down and give up their juices, about 3 minutes. Take the berries off the heat and let cool; the mixture should thicken up as is cools.
  • In a clean bowl, whip the cream with the sugar and the vanilla to soft peaks. Put the lemon curd into a second bowl and stir in a little of the whipped cream to loosen it. Then fold in the rest of the cream.
  • To assemble the trifle, spoon a layer of the lemon cream into a large glass bowl. Add a layer of pound cake, breaking the slices into pieces that fit. Then soak the cake with a layer of berries and their juices. Keep going to make 3 or 4 more layers, depending on the size of the bowl, finishing with a layer of lemon cream. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

VERY BERRY TRIFLE

Provided by Food Network

Categories     dessert

Time 45m

Yield 8-10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Crisco® Original No-Stick Cooking Spray
1 box Pillsbury® Moist Supreme® Classic White Premium Cake Mix
1 1/4 cups water
1/3 cup Crisco® Pure Vegetable Oil
4 egg whites
1 (6-serving size box) vanilla instant pudding
1 (12 oz.) jar Smucker's® Strawberry Preserves
2 cups (about 8) crumbled coconut macaroons
3 cups mixed fresh berries
1 (8 oz.) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
1/4 cup slivered, blanched almonds, toasted* (optional)

Steps:

  • HEAT oven to 350 degrees F. Spray two 8-inch round baking pans with no-stick cooking spray. Mix cake mix, water, vegetable oil, and egg whites in a large bowl on low speed for 1 minute; beat on medium speed 2 minutes more, scraping bowl occasionally (or beat 2 minutes by hand, using a wire whisk.) Pour into prepared pans.
  • BAKE 25 to 30 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes in pan. Run knife around inside of pan before removing. Cool completely in wire rack.
  • MAKE pudding according to package directions. Cut cooled cakes horizontally in half. Spread each lower half with half of the preserves; replace top. Cut filled cakes into bite-sized pieces; place pieces from one cake randomly into bottom of 14-cup trifle or glass bowl.
  • SPRINKLE with half of macaroons. Spread half of pudding over macaroons. Top with half of berries and whipped topping. Repeat layers with remaining cake, macaroons, pudding and whipped topping; garnish with remaining berries and almonds, if desired.

Tips:

  • Use fresh berries for the best flavor. If fresh berries are not available, you can use frozen berries that have been thawed and drained.
  • Make the trifle a day ahead of time to allow the flavors to meld. This will also give the trifle time to set, making it easier to slice and serve.
  • If you don't have a trifle bowl, you can use a large glass bowl or even a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  • To make a non-alcoholic version of this trifle, simply omit the Prosecco or champagne. You can also use sparkling water or club soda instead.
  • This trifle is a great way to use up leftover cake or cookies. Just crumble them up and layer them in the trifle bowl.

Conclusion:

This Very Berry Trifle is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its layers of fresh berries, creamy custard, and fluffy cake, it's sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give this trifle a try. You won't be disappointed!
