Raspberry Trifles Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 pound fresh raspberries
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup orange juice
• 1 pint heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 pound pound cake, cut into small cubes

Instructions

1. In a medium saucepan, combine raspberries, granulated sugar, and orange juice over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture comes to a boil and thickens slightly, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature.
2. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream with the powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
3. To assemble the trifles, spoon a layer of raspberry sauce into the bottom of each serving glass. Add a layer of pound cake cubes, followed by a layer of whipped cream. Repeat layers until glass is full, ending with a layer of whipped cream.
4. Top each glass with a spoonful of remaining raspberry sauce and a fresh raspberry.
5. Chill trifles in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Verdict

These Raspberry Trifles are the perfect combination of sweet and tart. The fluffy whipped cream, moist pound cake, and raspberry sauce all come together to create a deliciously satisfying dessert.

Serving Suggestions

Serve each trifle in a chilled glass and top with fresh mint leaves for a pop of color. These trifles are great for entertaining, as they can be made ahead of time and chilled until ready to serve. Enjoy!
