✨ A fresh, fruity, and fun dessert that’s made for summer parties, picnics, and sweet cravings!
⏱️ Time Breakdown:
- Prep Time: 20 minutes
- Cook Time: 0 minutes
- Total Time: 20 minutes
- Servings: 6 mini trifles
📝 Ingredients:
- 1 lb strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 1 tbsp granulated sugar
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- ¼ cup powdered sugar
- Dash of vanilla extract
- ¼ cup milk
- 3 oz ladyfingers (or yellow/white cake), broken into chunks (about 12 pieces)
- 1 pint blueberries
- 6 small jars or glasses
👩🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions:
- Macerate the strawberries:
In a small bowl, toss sliced strawberries with granulated sugar. Let sit for 10 minutes so the juices release 🍓. - Whip the cream layer:
Using a hand or stand mixer, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Mix in milk and a dash of vanilla until light and creamy. - Layer the trifles:
In each jar, start with broken ladyfingers. Add a spoonful of the cream cheese mixture. Layer with strawberries. Repeat layers, finishing with blueberries on top 💙. - Chill and serve:
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. Serve chilled straight from the jars — no fuss, all flavor! 🧁
💡 Pro Tips:
- Make-Ahead Magic: These mini trifles can be made the night before — they taste even better after chilling!
- Substitute Alert: No ladyfingers? Try pound cake, sponge cake, or even store-bought shortcake.
- Flavor Boost: Add a touch of lemon zest to the cream cheese mix for a citrusy kick.
- Party Perfect: Serve in mason jars for easy transport to BBQs, baby showers, or patriotic holidays.
