Description

Enjoy a delightful Strawberry Shortcake Trifle featuring fluffy angel food cake, luscious strawberry sauce, and creamy Greek yogurt whipped cream—a perfect treat for gatherings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 Angel Food Cake (cut into 1" cubes)
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons cold water
  • 4 cups strawberries (quartered, and divided)
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
  • 3/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups plain Greek yogurt

Instructions

  1. Prepare the strawberry sauce: In a small bowl, combine cornstarch and cold water. Set aside.
  2. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine 2 cups of quartered strawberries, granulated sugar, water, and lemon juice. Bring to a boil.
  3. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and stir in the cornstarch mixture. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly until thickened.
  4. Add the remaining 2 cups of strawberries to the pot and cook for an additional minute. Remove from heat once thickened.
  5. For the Greek yogurt whipped cream: In a stand mixer or using a hand mixer, beat heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla on medium speed until medium peaks form.
  6. Gently mix in the Greek yogurt until well combined.
  7. Assemble the trifle: Place 1/3 of the angel food cake cubes at the bottom of a trifle dish. Top with 1/3 of the Greek yogurt whipped cream, spreading it to cover the cake.
  8. Spread 1/3 to 1/2 of the strawberry sauce over the whipped cream. Repeat this layering process two more times, finishing with the remaining strawberry sauce on top.
  9. Chill in the fridge for at least 1 hour before serving. Optionally, top with fresh strawberries before serving.

Notes

Best enjoyed the same day it’s made or within 6-8 hours.
Feel free to adjust the amount of strawberry sauce according to taste.
Adding fresh strawberries on top adds a nice touch and garnish.
