Description
An Angel Berry Trifle that’s perfect for Easter brunch made with fresh berries, angel food cake, and an out-of-this-world vanilla pudding and cream cheese custard.
Ingredients
1 ounce instant sugar-free vanilla pudding (1 package)
1½ cups milk
1 cup vanilla yogurt
6 ounces cream cheese (whipped)
½ cup sour cream
12 ounces whipped cream (Cool Whip)
1 angel food cake, prepared and cut into cubes
2 cups strawberries, chopped
2 cups raspberries
2 cups blackberries
Instructions
- In your mixer, whisk the milk and pudding mix together for a couple of minutes or until firm. Pour into another bowl and set aside.
- In the bowl of your mixer, add yogurt, cream cheese, and sour cream and beat until smooth. Fold in pudding and 1 cup of the whipped topping.
- Place a third of the angel food cake cubes in a 4-quart trifle bowl. Top with a third of the pudding mixture, half of the remaining whipped topping, and a third of the berries. Repeat layers once. Top with remaining cake, pudding, and berries.
- Serve immediately or refrigerate.
Notes
- I used a store-bought already prepared angel food cake, but you can make your own and use that instead.
- Make sure to store this in the refrigerator because it has a lot of dairy, so you don’t want to leave it at room temperature for too long. This trifle will last up to 3 days in the refrigerator.
- Perfect for make-ahead. Trifles are great because you can make them the day before, and the longer they sit in the fridge, the better they will taste.
