Time 40m

Yield 15

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 pounds fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
ΒΌ cup white sugar
1 quart heavy cream
1 (3.3 ounce) package instant white chocolate pudding mix
1 (6 ounce) container lemon yogurt
2 tablespoons coconut-flavored rum, or to taste, divided
2 (16 ounce) prepared pound cakes, cubed
2 pints fresh blueberries, or as needed

Steps:

  • In a bowl, sprinkle the strawberries with sugar; stir to distribute the sugar, and set aside. Chill a large metal mixing bowl and beaters from an electric mixer.
  • Pour the cream into the chilled mixing bowl, and add white chocolate pudding mix, lemon yogurt, and about 1 tablespoon of coconut rum, if desired; beat until fluffy with an electric mixer set on Medium speed.
  • Spread a layer of pound cake cubes into the bottom of a glass 10x15-inch baking dish, and sprinkle the cubes with another tablespoon of coconut rum. Cover the pound cake with a layer of strawberries; sprinkle blueberries over the strawberries. Spread a thick layer of whipped cream over the berries. Repeat the layers several times, ending with a layer of strawberries sprinkled with blueberries and reserving about 1 cup of whipped cream; top the trifle with dollops of whipped cream to serve. Refrigerate leftovers.

The recipe was very easy to follow and the trifle looked just like the picture. However, it was a little too sweet for my taste. I would probably use less sugar next time.

This trifle was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. I think I would use less sugar next time, or maybe even omit the chocolate chips. Overall, it was a good recipe and I would make it again.
