Lizz's Ugly Bakery: A Patriotic Trifle

With the unofficial kickoff of Summer happening this weekend there will be lots of grilling, picnicing and all types of get togethers happening! If you're asked to bring a dessert this could be a great idea for you!

This Patriotic Trifle is pretty simple, it's just a few easy homemade (or store bought...ain't nobody judging!) ingredients that are layered up and completely delicious!

I kind of made my recipe from a couple of different recipes, because I didn't fully like any of the truffle recipes I found. 

I used a light poundcake for the cake element, I DID use a boxed pudding mix, but I made a homemade whipped cream and tons of gorgeous berries like strawberries, raspberries and blackberries (Ninja didn't think she could eat them because of the seeds....WHAT????)!

Here is the poundcake recipe I used: Poundcake Recipe

I LOVE this recipe for homemade whipped cream! It's only 3 ingredients and takes about 5 minutes. My tip is, you don't HAVE to refrigerate your bowl. I NEVER do! Homemade Whipped Cream

This is a recipe that can be totally customized by you! If you like banana pudding, use that flavor and pair the fruit you add to match your pudding.
