Ingredients

• 1 loaf pound cake (store-bought or homemade)
• 2 boxes (3.4 oz each) vanilla pudding mix
• 4 cups milk
• 2 cups heavy whipping cream
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 cups strawberries, hulled and sliced
• 1 cup blueberries
• 1 cup raspberries
• 0.5 cup toasted almond slices (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Cut the pound cake into 1-inch cubes and set aside.

Step 2

Prepare the vanilla pudding by whisking the pudding mix with milk in a large bowl. Follow package instructions and refrigerate until thickened, about 5 minutes.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream with the granulated sugar and vanilla extract using a hand or stand mixer until soft peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip.

Step 4

Set up a large trifle dish or glass bowl for assembling the trifle.

Step 5

Begin by layering one-third of the pound cake cubes at the bottom of the dish.

Step 6

Top the cake layer with one-third of the vanilla pudding, spreading evenly.

Step 7

Add one-third of the mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries) on top of the pudding layer.

Step 8

Spread one-third of the whipped cream over the berries, creating an even layer.

Step 9

Repeat the layers two more times (cake, pudding, berries, whipped cream), ensuring the final layer is whipped cream.

Step 10

Optional: Sprinkle toasted almond slices on top for added texture and flavor.

Step 11

Cover the trifle with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1-2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.

Step 12

Serve with a large spoon, scooping down to include all the layers. Enjoy!
