Best Easy Raspberry Trifle Recipes

EASY RASPBERRY TRIFLE

Steps:

• Move oven rack to lowest position (remove other racks). Heat oven to 350°F.
• In extra-large glass or metal bowl, beat cake mix and cold water on low speed 30 seconds; beat on medium speed 1 minute. Pour into ungreased 10-inch angel food (tube) cake pan. Do not use fluted tube cake pan or 9-inch angel food (tube) cake pan, or batter will overflow.
• Bake 37 to 47 minutes or until top is dark golden brown and cracks feel very dry and not sticky. Do not underbake.
• Immediately turn pan upside down onto glass bottle until cake is completely cool, about 1 hour. Run knife around edges; remove from pan. Tear cake into about 3/4-inch pieces.
• Pour boiling water on gelatin in large bowl; stir until gelatin is dissolved. Add raspberries. (If desired, remove several raspberries and reserve for garnish.) Refrigerate gelatin mixture about 15 minutes or until thickened but not set.
• Layer half each of the cake pieces, gelatin mixture and yogurt in 3-quart glass bowl; repeat. Garnish with reserved raspberries. Refrigerate at least 2 hours until firm. Cover and refrigerate any remaining dessert.

EASY RASPBERRY TRIFLE

Steps:

• Prepare custard mix according to package instructions. Place in freezer until cold, stirring often, about 15 minutes.
• Mix preserves and 1/4 cup reserved raspberry syrup in small bowl. Line bottom of 8-inch-diameter glass bowl that is 4 to 5 inches deep (about 15-cup capacity) with layer of cake, trimming to fit. Brush 1/4 cup Sherry over. Spread 1/4 cup preserve mixture over. Reserve 12 raspberries. Sprinkle 1/3 cup raspberries over preserves, then pour 1 cup custard over. Repeat layering 2 more times. Cover; chill 2 hours. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Keep chilled.)
• Beat cream in large bowl until stiff peaks form. Spoon cream onto trifle. Garnish with 12 raspberries.

EASY RASPBERRY & GINGER TRIFLE CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Put 50ml of the alcohol in a bowl with the cream cheese and beat with an electric whisk until smooth. Add the cream and sugar and beat again until well mixed and softly whipped.
• Using a pastry brush, quickly brush a gingernut biscuit with a little of the remaining alcohol. Stack, brushed-side down, on a cake plate or stand, then repeat to make a large round base of biscuits. Spread over a layer of cream, squish in some raspberries, then repeat with another layer of biscuits, pressing down slightly to stick. Repeat layers, finishing with a fourth layer of cream and raspberries. Cover with an upturned mixing bowl, or very loosely with cling film, then chill until ready to serve. It's good after 2 hrs, but could be made the day before, too. Serve with a sprinkling of crushed gingernut biscuit.
