So pretty and surprisingly easy! Perfect for a Simcha!

Ingredients

Cake

  • your favorite vanilla cake, crumbled into pieces. (Great way to use up leftover or imperfect cakes)

Lemon Curd

  • 1 cup white sugar

  • 3 whole eggs

  • 3/4 c. lemon juice (I sometimes used bottled, and it’s totally fine!)

  • 1/4 c. oil or margarine

Whipped Cream

  • 1 rich’s whip carton

  • 1/4 c. instant vanilla pudding powder

For Topping

  • meringues, optional, for topping

Directions

Prepare the Trifle Cups

1.

First prepare the lemon curd – in the microwave! Couldn’t be easier!

2.

Whisk sugar and eggs in a large microwave safe bowl until smooth. whisk in lemon juice and oil.

3.

Cook in microwave for 1 minute intervals, stirring after each minute. The process will take about 5 minutes. You want it to thicken nicely, but it will continue to thicken a bit more in the fridge.

4.

Remove from microwave, transfer to a container with a lid, and refrigerate about half hour (up to 2 weeks).

5.

While the lemon curd cools, you can whip up the Rich’s Whip in a clean mixing bowl, slowly adding the pudding powder as it whips.

6.

Crumble the vanilla cake into 12-18 mini mousse cups, then pour in some lemon curd, and finally pipe the whip topping on top with a piping tip and piping bag. Garnish with a meringue.

Trifle is not a good dessert to freeze. None of the layers of trifle will freeze and defrost well without suffering significant changes.
