All-American Trifle

This red white and blue trifle is perfect for Fourth of July or BBQ party. It's a creamy, fruity, heavenly dessert! I've been told it's like a super-charged strawberry shortcake.

Ingredients

• 3 pounds fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

• ¼ cup white sugar or to taste

• 1 quart heavy cream

• 1 (6 ounce) container lemon yogurt

• 1 (3.3 ounce) package instant white chocolate pudding mix

• 2 tablespoons coconut-flavored rum, or to taste, divided (Optional)

• 2 (16 ounce) prepared pound cakes, cubed

• 2 pints fresh blueberries, or as needed

Directions

1. Gather all ingredients.

2. Sprinkle strawberries with sugar in a bowl; stir to distribute sugar, and set aside.

3. Chill a large metal mixing bowl and beaters from an electric mixer.

4. Pour cream into the chilled mixing bowl, and add lemon yogurt, pudding mix, and about 1 tablespoon of coconut rum; beat until fluffy with an electric mixer set on medium speed.

5. Spread a layer of pound cake cubes into the bottom of a glass trifle dish, and sprinkle cubes with remaining tablespoon coconut rum. Cover pound cake with a layer of strawberries; sprinkle blueberries over strawberries. Spread a thick layer of whipped cream over the berries.

6. Repeat the layers several times, ending with a layer of strawberries sprinkled with blueberries and reserving about 1 cup of whipped cream; top the trifle with dollops of whipped cream to serve. Refrigerate leftovers.
