Strawberry Trifle Recipe
This strawberry trifle recipe is made with homemade angel food cake, vanilla pudding, and macerated strawberries layered into a trifle dish.
Servings: 10 servings
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 batch Homemade Vanilla Pudding or 1 large box instant vanilla pudding
- 2 pounds fresh strawberries hulled and sliced
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 angel food cake cut into cubes
- 1 batch homemade whipped cream
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the sliced strawberries and sugar. Cover and let them macerate for about 30 minutes to release their juices.
- Slice the angel food cake lengthwise into three equal rounds, then cut into 1-inch cubes.
- Once the pudding is fully chilled, fold in 1 cup of whipped cream until fully combined.
- Assemble the trifle: Layer the cake cubes at the bottom of a trifle dish, followed by spoonfuls of macerated strawberries and their juices. Add a layer of pudding, then spread a layer of whipped cream on top. Repeat another layer of the cake, strawberries (save a few for the topping), pudding, and whipped cream.
- Chill until ready to serve, at least 1 hour.
Notes
Storage: Cover the trifle dish tightly with plastic wrap and it'll last for up to three days in the fridge.
My Top Tip: Don't skip macerating the strawberries. Give them the full 30 minutes with the sugar. This is what creates the syrup that soaks into the cake layers and makes the whole trifle taste like more than the sum of its parts.
