yeah, it's winter time here and strawberries are $5 a lb. I love Janet's peanut butter cup trifle. YUM!Even though strawberries are $$$ right now, I did do the new strawberry cream trifle at a show last weekend (host's request for something red) and it was DIVINE!

I make a Strawberry Shortcake trifle a lot in the summer at my shows. It's just pound cake, strawberries (the frozen is actually better because of the juice), and cool whip. I use the utility knife to cut the Sarah Lee poundcake, batter bowl for the straberries, and EAD for the cool whip. It's always a big hit. I sometimes also add blueberries. And it's really quick, it's good for a two demo show.

I love the Cappucinno Mousse Trifle...especially with a little Bailey's added.

I am (and always will be) in love with the Strawberry Cheesecake Trifle. I could eat the "filling" by the spoonful!

Here is the recipe. I never buy a "pound cake" I make my own by adding a box of instant pudding powder and adding an extra egg to the cake ingredients called for on the box. Bake it in the Large Bar Pan, and done! (Line it with parchment paper and lift it right out of there to cut it up!)

Strawberry Cheesecake Trifle
Ingredients:
• 2 quarts strawberries, sliced
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 2 teaspoons almond extract
• ---
• 2--8 ounce blocks cream cheese, softened

• 1/4 t. almond extract
• 16 ounce tub whipped topping or 1 pint cream, whipped
• 1 large angel food or pound cake, torn into pieces

Set aside some berries for garnish. Mix rest with sugar and almond extract. Set aside. Mix cream cheese, sour cream, powdered sugar, vanilla and almond extract. Fold in whipped cream.

Mine is so simple.....just did it last week....I bill it as a WOW recipe that you can put together in less than 10 minutes!

1 purchased angel food cake or pound cake, sliced into cubes
2 pkgs Cheesecake instant pudding
1 12 ounce container Cool whip
3 cups milk
2 qts strawberries, washed and hulled (reserve a few unhulled for garnish)
1 pint blueberries, washed
sliced almonds


Mix the pudding with the milk, and then fold in about 9-10 ounces of the cool whip. Using the mix n chop, chop the strawberries, and then stir in blueberries.

In the trifle bowl, layer 1/3 cake, 1/3 berries, 1/3 pudding mixture....repeat layers twice. Use the rest of cool whip in the EAD to make rosettes around the top of trifle, sprinkle with toasted, sliced almonds, and using ESP, make strawberry fans and place in middle of trifle.

I posted this on another thread but we call it Death By Chocolate.
Make a Devil's Food cake by the box and cut into cubes. Make Chocolate Pudding as instructed. Layer cake, pudding, cool whip, drizzle with chocolate and caramel ice cream topping and finish with health bar bites. Repeat layer. So yummy!

I also like the Lime Berry Mousse Trifle from last summer, it tastes like a massive strawberry shortcake dessert!
