Mini Strawberry Trifle -a fun easy summer treat
Cook's Notes: The recipe was enough for 4-6 mini trifles. If using a small container like a wine glass. there will be two cake layers with diced strawberries. Optional grating lemon zest over the top. Cake Ingredients:
- 1 prepared angel food cake
- 1-quart strawberries, rinsed and dried on paper towels
- 1-1/4 cups heavy cream
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 2 oz. softened light cream cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 tablespoons Lemon Curd (found in the jelly aisle)
- Tear enough cake pieces as needed.
- Dice the strawberries and reserve some whole ones if using for garnish on top.
- In a small bowl beat softened cream cheese, vanilla, powdered sugar, and lemon curd.
- Whip cream and fold cream cheese mixture until well blended.
- Start with a cake layer, then add the cream cheese filling and some diced strawberries. Repeat layering one more time and top with diced strawberries.
What an easy, refreshing summer dessert.

This sounds delightful. My oldest son always asks for trifle for his birthday cake, and I've got a recipe for a strawberry one, but adding the lemon curd here would be so wonderful!
