Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Heavy cream
- 0.5 cups Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 12 pieces Ladyfingers (or sponge cake)
- 0.5 cups Mixed berry preserves
- 1 cup Fresh strawberries (sliced)
- 1 cup Fresh blueberries
- 0.25 cup Chopped pistachios
- 0.25 cup Mint leaves (for garnish)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, pour the heavy cream. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract.
Using an electric hand mixer or stand mixer, whip the cream until firm peaks form. Set the whipped cream aside.
Prepare a flat serving dish, trifle bowl, or individual dessert glasses, depending on your presentation preference.
If using ladyfingers or sponge cake, arrange a layer of them at the base of the dish or glasses.
Spread a thin layer of mixed berry preserves over the ladyfingers or sponge cake.
Add a layer of whipped cream, smoothing it out with a spatula for even coverage.
Sprinkle some sliced strawberries and blueberries over the whipped cream layer.
Repeat the layering process (cake/preserves, whipped cream, and berries) until all ingredients are used or your container is full, ending with a whipped cream layer on top.
Sprinkle the top layer with chopped pistachios for added crunch and garnish with fresh mint leaves for a pop of color.
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to let the flavors meld together.
