Ingredients
Scale
Red Velvet Cake
- 1 red velvet cake, cubed
Pudding
- 1 package (3.4 oz) instant white chocolate pudding mix
- 2 cups cold milk
Cream Cheese Mixture
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 16 oz whipped topping, divided
Fruit
- Mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries), quantity as desired for layering and garnish
Instructions
- Make the pudding: In a large bowl, whisk together the instant white chocolate pudding mix and the cold milk until the mixture is smooth and has thickened, about 2 minutes. Set aside to firm up slightly.
- Prepare the cream cheese mixture: In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with the powdered sugar until smooth and creamy. Gently fold in half of the whipped topping to create a light and fluffy mixture.
- Assemble the trifle: In a large trifle bowl, start with a layer of cubed red velvet cake. Spoon over a layer of the white chocolate pudding, followed by the cream cheese mixture, and then scatter mixed berries on top. Repeat these layers as desired, finishing with a final layer of whipped topping and a garnish of fresh berries for a beautiful presentation.
- Chill and serve: Cover the assembled trifle and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. This chilling time allows all the flavors to meld together and the dessert to set nicely. Serve chilled for best taste and texture.
Notes
- Use fresh berries that are in season for the best flavor and appearance.
- For a quicker preparation, use pre-made red velvet cake from the store.
- This dessert can be prepared a day ahead and kept refrigerated to enhance flavor melding.
- If desired, substitute whipped topping with homemade whipped cream for a fresher taste.
- Adjust the layering quantity according to the size of your trifle bowl and the number of servings required.
