Strawberry Trifle Recipe
This delicious strawberry trifle is so easy to make with fresh strawberry fruit and a simple vanilla custard pudding.
- Pound cake cubed (we used store-bought, total about 1.5 pounds of pound cake)
- Sliced strawberries (at least two pints)
- Vanilla pudding mix (5.1 oz box of Jello Vanilla pudding)
- 2 Cups milk
- 1 Pint of heavy cream (to make fresh whipped cream)
- 1/4 cup powdered Sugar
Add two cups of milk and the vanilla pudding mix in a stand mixer or use a hand mixer. Beat according to the directions until your pudding is formed. Set aside the pudding and then make the whipped cream by mixing a pint of heavy whipping cream and the powdered sugar in a stand mixer or hand mixer on medium to high speed until stiff peaks form. Do not overbeat or the cream will curdle and turn into butter! Reserve 1/4 of the whipped cream in a bowl and place in the refrigerator. Add the remaining whipped cream to the vanilla pudding mixture and softly fold until a light and airy custard is formed. Refrigerated the custard until you are ready to form the trifle. When you're ready to assemble the trifle, slice your pound cake into cubes.Layer one-third of the pound cake into the bottom of the trifle dish. Add 1/3 of your custard on top and layer with strawberries. You can add strawberries on the sides for a decorative touch. Repeat with another pound cake, custard and strawberry layer twice more. Add your reserved 1/4 of whipped cream on top of your last custard layer and add strawberries on top. CChill the trifle in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
