Eye-catching trifles are easy to prepare when you use purchased pound cake, instant pudding and frozen whipped topping. Letting guests assemble their own makes it fun—and saves you time!—Darlene Brenden, Salem, Oregon
Ingredients:
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1-1/2 cups whole milk
1 egg, lightly beaten
1/2 cup orange juice
1 tablespoon butter
1 teaspoon grated orange peel
1 can (20 ounces) crushed pineapple, undrained
1 package (3.4 ounces) instant vanilla pudding mix
1 cup whipped topping
2 cups sliced peeled fresh or frozen peaches, thawed
1 cup sliced fresh strawberries
1 cup fresh raspberries
1/2 cup fresh blueberries
2 loaves (10-3/4 ounces each) frozen pound cake, thawed and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
