Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 loaf Pound cake (store-bought or homemade)
- 2 cups Fresh blueberries
- 1 cup Lemon curd
- 1.5 cups Heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest (optional for garnish)
- 10 leaves Mint leaves (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Cut the pound cake into 1-inch cubes and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Using an electric mixer, whip the cream on medium speed until soft peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip. Set the whipped cream aside.
In a small bowl, gently fold the lemon curd into half of the whipped cream to create a lemon-flavored cream mixture. Leave the other half of the whipped cream plain.
In a trifle dish or individual dessert glasses, begin assembling the trifle. Start with a layer of pound cake cubes, followed by a layer of the lemon cream, then a layer of fresh blueberries. Repeat the layers until the dish is full, finishing with a layer of the plain whipped cream on top.
For garnish, sprinkle lemon zest over the top layer of whipped cream and decorate with a few mint leaves and additional blueberries, if desired.
Refrigerate the trifle for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled and enjoy your Blueberry Lemon Trifle!
