Ingredients
  

Cream Layer
  • 473 ml Heavy Whipping Cream very cold
  • 240 ml cold milk any kind, but I used whole milk
  • 5.1 oz instant vanilla pudding
  • 14 oz sweetened condensed milk refrigerated
Cake and Fruit Layer
  • 24 oz angel food cake blocks I purchased mine at Fred Meyer; $3 each
  • 1 lb fresh strawberries sliced
  • 16 oz frozen mixed berries partially thawed in the fridge
  • 1 g Strawberry Fruit Glaze sold in any grocery store next to the fresh berries

Equipment

  • Trifle Bowl

Method
 

  1. Beat cold whipping cream on the highest speed for about 3 minutes or until fluffy and stiff peaks form. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  2. Whisk 1 cup milk together with instant pudding until well blended, then whisk in 1 can refrigerated condensed milk until smooth. Gently fold in the whipped cream and refrigerate until ready to use.
  3. Chop your angel food cake into 1" cubes and place 1/3 of them into the bottom of your trifle bowl.
  4. Add 1/3 of your cream and spread around somewhat evenly (it doesn't have to be perfect!)
  5. Add 1/4 of your fresh/frozen fruit. I thought it looked pretty to put the strawberries around on the walls of the bowl, but you can do it any way you want to.
  6. Spread a thin layer of glaze over the fruit.
  7. Repeat steps 1-4 until you have 3 layers of cake.
  8. Arrange your remaining fruit over the top of your cake and brush a thin layer of glaze over the fruit.

Notes

This trifle is perfect for gatherings. Feel free to swap out the berries for stone fruits like peaches or nectarines if desired.
