Equipment
- knife and cutting board
- 8 eight-ounce glass jars
Ingredients
- 1 angel food cake cubed
- 1 pound strawberries diced
- 1 pint blueberries
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 8 ounces frozen whipped topping thawed
Instructions
- Stir together the strawberries, blueberries and sugar until combined.
- Add a layer of angel food cake in the bottom each jar.
- Top with a layer of frozen whipped topping, then a layer of berries.
- Repeat the three layers again in each jar, ending with berries on top.
- Serve immediately or place a lid on the jars and chill until ready to serve.
Notes
- In place of the whipped topping, you can use sweetened cream cheese or even custard if you want a richer dessert.
- I recommend using fresh berries for this recipe, if you are using frozen make sure that you thaw and drain them first. Frozen berries can make this dessert a little watery.
- If you are serving this for the 4th of July or other summer holidays, don't let jars sit out in the heat. This will cause the whipped topping to break down and become runny.
- Using homemade angel food cake or pound cake? Make sure that you allow it to cool completely before you assemble this recipe.
- You can make this in a glass trifle bowl instead of eight small glasses.
