Blueberry Trifle image

This trifle recipe is from "Taste of the South" magazine. It sounds absolutely fantastic and I can't wait to make it! There are other blueberry trifle recipes on Recipezaar, but none quite like this one. It sounds like the perfect summertime treat. NOTE: the prep time includes 2 hour refrigeration time in step 1.
