Sometimes, you just have to take your sweet time…and that’s what this blog post is all about! This dessert is super-easy to make, and it’s really delicious. It’s definitely worth the extra cardio, and you can check out the low fat version below the regular recipe.
Fruity Trifle
You’ll Need:
1-2 Medium Slices Pound Cake or Angel-Food Cake
2/3 Cup Vanilla Ice Cream
2/3 Cup Freshly Sliced Strawberries Sprinkled with Sugar
½ Cup Fresh Blueberries
2 Tablespoons Strawberry Syrup for Drizzling
In a pretty dessert bowl or cup, place one slice of the pound cake and then drizzle some of the strawberry syrup on top. Then, cover the cake with half of the vanilla ice cream.
Use half the strawberries to layer on top of the ice cream, and go around the side of the bowl with the blueberries, so the pretty blue color can be seen through the glass. Add the other slice of cake, drizzle again with the strawberry syrup, and layer the ice cream, strawberries and then the blueberries around the sides.
Make it low fat by skipping the sprinkled sugar and strawberry syrup. Use only fresh fruit and substitute low fat flavored yogurt for the ice cream. Practically anything can be added to this desert – granola, nuts, or another favorite food.
This makes a huge dessert, so grab an extra spoon and share it with someone really special!
