Recipe type: Dessert
Cuisine: American
Serves: 4 servings for mini trifle bowls
Ingredients
*Amounts don't have to be exact - just make the layers look pretty and neat!
- 1 box of Pillsbury Blue Raspberry Premium Cookie Mix
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 lb fresh strawberries, hulled, cut into bite-size pieces
Instructions
- Bake cookies according to package directions (you won't be using all of them for these trifles so if you want, you can make a half batch).
- Finely crumble cooled cookies with hands into medium bowl or directly into mini trifles (you can also use mason jars or small glasses).
- In bowl of stand mixer fitted with whisk attachment, place cream, 3 tablespoons of the sugar and the vanilla; beat until stiff peaks form. (Just a few minutes with a stand mixer; it will take longer with a hand mixer.)
- Refrigerate until ready to use.
- Place strawberries in medium bowl; sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sugar; mix gently.
- To assemble trifles, place a layer of crumbled blue cookies (measurements don't have to be exact) in bottom of each of 4 mini trifle dishes; press down to compact.
- Top each with equal parts of the strawberries and a few tablespoons of whipped cream. Repeat layers; top each with a single cut strawberry. (You will have whipped cream left over but can use it for so many things!)
- Store trifles in refrigerator until ready to serve. Serve trifles the same day they are made for best results.
