Ingredients
- 300 grams Pound cake or sponge cake
- 400 grams Fresh strawberries
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 240 milliliters Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 5 leaves Fresh mint leaves (optional for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the strawberries thoroughly under cold water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Step 2
Hull and slice the strawberries into thin slices. Reserve a few whole strawberries for garnish if desired.
Step 3
In a medium bowl, combine the sliced strawberries and granulated sugar. Mix gently until the strawberries are evenly coated. Let them sit for 10 minutes to release their juices.
Step 4
While the strawberries macerate, cut the pound cake or sponge cake into small cubes, approximately 1-inch in size.
Step 5
In a separate mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Be careful not to over-whip the cream.
Step 6
Begin assembling the trifles in individual glasses or jars. Start by placing a layer of cake cubes at the bottom.
Step 7
Add a layer of the macerated strawberries along with some of their juices over the cake cubes.
Step 8
Spoon a layer of whipped cream over the strawberries.
Step 9
Repeat the layering process (cake, strawberries, whipped cream) until the glasses are filled, finishing with a layer of whipped cream on top.
Step 10
Garnish each trifle with a whole strawberry and a fresh mint leaf if desired.
Step 11
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving. Enjoy!
