Trifle Goodness

Okay, this is a really bad picture. I was too lazy to get my trifle dish out of my cupboard - I have to move like 6 things to get to it - lazy. Also, I wasn't so careful in the layering. But you can see the goodness right? Strawberries, vanilla pudding, whip cream, and angel food cake all piled in the same bowl? So good. I love trifles because you can use any kind of cake, any kind of fruit, and any kind of pudding, add whipped cream and you have a great dessert. (Well except for in this case, it is USUALLY nice to look at) Here is my favorite trifle recipe....(some of you might already have it?)

Strawberry Lemon Trifle

4 oz. cream cheese, softened
1 T water
1 cup non-fat lemon yogurt
2 cups skim milk
3.4 oz. instant lemon pudding mix
2 tsp grated lemon peel
10" angel food cake
2 1/2 cupse sliced fresh strawberries, divided

In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and yogurt. Add milk, pudding mix and lemon peel; beat until smooth. In a blender process 1/2 cup strawberries and water until smooth. Tear cake into 1 inch cubes; place 1/3 in a trifle bowl or 3 qt serving bowl. Top with 1/3 pudding mixture and 1/2 of the remaining strawberries. Drizzle with 1/2 of the strawberry sauce. Repeat. Top with remaining cake and pudding mixture. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours.
