Strawberries & Cream Trifle

Posted by Lori:

Here is another trifle recipe for you.  This one used a boxed angel food cake recipe (the one I posted yesterday).  This dessert feeds a LOT of people so is great for potlucks or big family meals. I made it for our annual FFA banquet.

1 angel food cake (I used this one:  Doctored Up Angel Food Cake (from a mix))
2 - 16 ounce bags frozen strawberries, thawed and mixed with 1/2 cup sugar
1 cup milk
1 small vanilla pudding

1 cup sour cream
1 large container whipped topping (such as Cool Whip)

In large mixing bowl, mix together milk and pudding mix.  Add sour cream and 2 cups whipped topping.  Refrigerate for 15-30 minutes. Tear angel food cake into bite sized pieces.  Layer some cake across bottom of trifle bowl or large bowl.  Add a layer of pudding mixture, followed by strawberries and sugar. Repeat layers.  Top with remaining whipped topping and a few reserved strawberries. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Is their a reason you used frozen strawberries? could you use fresh? if you add the sugar to it and let it sit an hour? or overnight in fridge if you not in a hurry?

I think fresh would be great - probably even better. Sometimes our selection of fresh produce isn't too great :( so I keep the whole frozen ones on hand for smoothies and desserts. I am happy to say that I bought 10 packages of fresh ones for 98 cents a few days ago, though!! :)
