Trifle

Yes, another recipe.  This one can be as easy or as difficult as suits; I've done it all from scratch and all from instant products, with equally good results.  If it'll  be eaten right away apples and bananas and such are fine, but it can be made a day ahead if you choose fruit that won't go brown or soggy. Instant Jello pudding can be stirred up with a fork-no single weapon required!  If you buy the cake, try to get loaf shapes; we like angel food, but pound cake is fine too.  We like plain, but flavors are good; it can be brushed with flavored syrup or booze if you'd like.  If you have a Farmers Market, your fruit will be cheaper, and generally taste better too.


Fresh Fruit Trifle



One tall, preferably clear container, preferably with a lid;
Angel food;
3 - 4 cups pudding;
Fruits of choice

1). Layer cubed cake in bottom of dish;

2). Sprinkle liberally with fruit;



3). Spoon a layer of pudding over top;




4)  Repeat as many times as your dish allows;

5)  After last fruit layer, reverse the order of operations and put on the cake cubes, then spoon over the pudding;






6). Top with whipped cream if you'd like it to look pretty; a few raspberries and mint leaves look very fetching.

7). Serve well chilled if possible!
