Patriotic Trifle


Trifle Dessert:
  • Trifle Bowl or large vase with straight sides
  • Cake, brownies, cookies or even cupcakes work just fine (Cake mixes are $.88 at Walmart)
  • 2 tubs of Whipped Topping (I buy mine at Aldi’s for $.89, but you can often find Cool Whip on sale)
  • 1 box Vanilla Instant Pudding ($.45)
  • 1 container of Strawberries ($1.19 at Aldi’s this week)
  • 1 container of Blueberries ($1.99 at Aldi’s this week)
  • Decorations (sprinkles and stars made from Candy melts, if desired)
Directions:
Bake cake, brownies, cookies or cupcakes, cool and cut into pieces. Place on bottom layer.
Mix pudding as directed on box, place in fridge to set. Then fold in 1 tub of Whipped Topping.
Spoon over cake layer. Then slice strawberries and add on top of pudding.
Add a layer of Whipped Topping, about 1/2 the container. Then repeat layers.
I added a few Blueberries on top, for color. Blueberries are a little more expensive than strawberries, it would take probably 2 maybe 3 boxes if you wanted to add them to the layers.
