Festive Strawberry Trifle image

This is a to "die-for" strawberry trifle. It is easy to make, or can be used with frozen berry slices, as well. This is beautiful for all holidays, dinner parties or just to treat yourselves! I found this on Diana's Desserts and have made a few minor changes, not that it needed it, but I can't help myself.

Time 2h40m

Yield 1 trifle, 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 chocolate pound cake or 1 regular poundcake
8 ounces cream cheese
16 ounces sour cream
1 (3 1/2 ounce) package vanilla pudding mix
1 cup milk
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 pints fresh strawberries, washed and hulled, halved or
frozen strawberries, halved, if necessary
1/4 cup sliced almonds
2 -3 cups whipped cream
1 teaspoon almond extract
Amaretto, to douse the cubed cake
6 -10 strawberries
chocolate curls

Steps:

  • Arrange a layer of lady fingers or chocolate pound cake cubes in the bottom of a large glass trifle bowl or other glass bowl, and douse with amaretto.
  • Whip the cream cheese and sour cream with sugar and add the pudding mixed with milk until you get a smooth mixture.
  • Divide mixture into two and cover the lady fingers or chocolate pound cake or regular pound cake, that has had a sprinkling or two of amaretto over and through it, with half the quantity.
  • Decorate with strawberry halves and sliced almonds, and cover with whipped cream.
  • Repeat the arrangement of the layers, and top with whole strawberries and whipped cream.
  • Garnish trifle with chocolate curls.
  • Keep trifle refrigerated long enough to allow to chill and for the flavors to marry.
  • Enjoy!
