White Chocolate Berry Trifle
White Chocolate Berry Trifle is an easy and delicious summer dessert!
Ingredients
- 1 pound cake cut into 1 inch or so cubes - You can use homemade or store bought. For a gluten free version see the notes below of my gluten free pound cake.
- homemade white chocolate pudding
- 1- 8 ounce container Cool Whip
- 2 cups fresh blueberries
- 3-4 cups sliced fresh strawberries
Instructions
- In a large trifle or glass bowl layer half of the pound cake, then half of the pudding, and then the strawberries, leaving a few to sprinkle on the top. Carefully spread about half of the Cool Whip on top of the berries.
- Then make another layer with the remaining pound cake, the rest of the pudding, and the blueberries, saving a few blueberries for the top. Top with remaining Cool Whip and decorate with the remaining berries.
- Let sit for a few hours or overnight.
- Serve and Enjoy!
Notes
For the pudding you can also use a box of Jello White Chocolate Pudding made according to the directions, but homemade is better.
For a gluten free trifle use my homemade gluten free pound cake.
Last night we had to bring a last minute dessert to a party. We stopped at Costco, and they had an amazing looking Strawberry Trifle there. We didn’t buy it, but I thought,’ hey, I could make that myself later this week’. Now I see your trifle and had never thought of putting white chocolate pudding in it. I think it looks so much better than the Costco one. I’m going to make your recipe this week. Thanks!
I hope you enjoy it! Trifles are so easy to make and look so nice. I love making them.
Yum! I’ll be doing this with coconut pudding to make it dairy free. Thanks for the inspiration once again!
I think that would work great. Any type of pudding works well for trifles.
I want to dig right in!
I made this tonight when we had another family over for dinner. It was a HIT! Super easy and ready ahead of time so we could eat it when we were ready. I made the pound cake from scratch and used homemade whipped cream instead of cool whip. The white chocolate pudding was so decadent! Thanks, Lynn, for this amazing recipe!
I am so glad that you enjoyed it!
Do you let it set in the fridge, I assume?
