Berries Cream Trifles Recipes

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, combine cranberries, blueberries, sugar and water; bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve sugar. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, 5 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl; cool completely. Refrigerate, covered, at least 1 hour or until cold., Place ricotta cheese, cream cheese, confectioners' sugar and vanilla in a small food processor. Process until smooth., In each of eight parfait glasses, layer 1 tablespoon berry sauce, 1/3 cup cake cubes, 2 tablespoons ricotta mixture and 2 tablespoons berry sauce. Repeat cake and cheese layers; top with 1 tablespoon berry sauce. Refrigerate, covered, until serving or up to 2 hours.

Steps:

• Place the berries into a large bowl and sprinkle with half of the lemon juice. Lightly toss.
• Combine the berries, sugar, cornstarch and remaining lemon juice in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a simmer and cook just until the berries begin to break down and give up their juices, about 3 minutes. Take the berries off the heat and let cool; the mixture should thicken up as is cools.
• In a clean bowl, whip the cream with the sugar and the vanilla to soft peaks. Put the lemon curd into a second bowl and stir in a little of the whipped cream to loosen it. Then fold in the rest of the cream.
• To assemble the trifle, spoon a layer of the lemon cream into a large glass bowl. Add a layer of pound cake, breaking the slices into pieces that fit. Then soak the cake with a layer of berries and their juices. Keep going to make 3 or 4 more layers, depending on the size of the bowl, finishing with a layer of lemon cream. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine sweetened condensed milk and cold water. Mix well.
• Add pudding mix and beat well.
• Chill 5 or 10 minutes.
• Fold in Cool Whip.
• To layer, put 1/2 the pound cake in the bottom of a glass bowl.
• Top with half of your berries followed by half of the cream. (Remember to leave a few of the best looking berries for garnish.).
• Repeat layering, ending with the cream.
• Garnish with berries.
• My preference is to refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
• I have also changed the layering to end with the berries, also a pretty look although much more casual.
• For lighter fare angel food cake can be used, however it is best to layer angel food immediately before serving. (I chill the cake so everything is cold.).

Steps:

• In medium bowl, beat pudding mix, vanilla, milk and sour cream with electric mixer on medium speed until soft pudding forms. Cover; refrigerate.
• In trifle bowl or large clear bowl, arrange 1 layer of sliced cake to cover entire bottom of bowl. Top with a layer of pudding, then a layer of whipped topping, and then a layer of strawberries. Repeat all layers except use blueberries. Continue with layers until bowl is full.
• Cover with plastic wrap; refrigerate until ready to serve.
