Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Main
  • 1 whole angel food cake cut into cubes
  • 2 cups mixed berries strawberries, blueberries, raspberries
  • 1 can fruit pie filling or topping optional; strawberry or cherry (21 oz)
  • 1 box instant vanilla pudding mix 3.4 oz
  • 1.5 cups cold milk
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 2 cups whipped topping Cool Whip or homemade
  • caramel or berry sauce for drizzle
  • extra berries and whipped cream for garnish

Method
 

  1. In a bowl, whisk the pudding mix with cold milk until thickened. Stir in sour cream until smooth and creamy.
  2. In a trifle dish or large glass bowl, layer half of the cubed angel food cake, half the berries, and half the pudding mixture.
  3. Repeat the layers with the remaining cake, berries, and pudding mixture.
  4. Spread the whipped topping evenly over the final layer. Drizzle with caramel or berry sauce.
  5. Top with extra berries and decorative whipped cream swirls if desired.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the dessert to firm and flavors to meld.

Notes

Use cold milk for best pudding texture. Slice larger berries like strawberries for even layering. Assemble a few hours in advance for best results. Store leftovers chilled, and enjoy within 2–3 days. Try chocolate sauce or fruit variations for a twist.
