Ingredients

  • 1 box (3.4 ounce) instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 2 cups 2% milk (should be cold)
  • 1 container (8 ounce) whipped topping (such as Cool Whip), thawed
  • 1 (16 ounce) pound cake , cut into small cubes
  • 3 cups fresh blueberries
  • 3 cups fresh raspberries

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the instant pudding mix and milk for 2-3 minutes, or until it starts to thicken.
  • Gently fold whipped topping into pudding until just combined. Set aside.
  • Place about ¼ cup of pound cake cubes into the bottom of a glass jar or trifle. Spread a layer of pudding mixture on top of pound cake. Add about 1/4 cup of blueberries on top of pudding, followed by more pound cake cubes, another layer of pudding, and then top the pudding with about 1/4 cup of raspberries.
  • Repeat with rest of jars. If using a medium trifle dish, repeat the layering process, ending with pudding.
  • Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.

Notes

  • If you'd rather make your own pound cake rather than buy it from the store, I recommend making this pound cake recipe. It calls for chocolate chips, so simply omit them.
