Ingredients
12-16ozstrawberries
12ozfresh blueberries
16ozhomemade or store bought pound cake
1-2cupsvanilla pudding(can be scratch-made or store-bought)
2cupswhipped cream(can be scratch-made or store-bought)
If using frozen pound cake, thaw according to package instructions. Cut fresh or thawed pound cake into 1-inch cubes.
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.
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.
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.
