Instructions
These easy steps will guide you through preparing the delightful Easy Lemon Blueberry Trifle:
1. Prepare the Ingredients: Start by washing the blueberries and setting them aside. Allow your whipped cream to be ready, whether it’s homemade or store-bought.
2. Cut the Pound Cake: If using pound cake, cut it into small cubes. If using ladyfingers, have them ready for layering.
3. Start Layering: In a large glass trifle bowl or individual serving glasses, add a layer of pound cake or ladyfingers at the bottom.
4. Add Lemon Curd: Spoon a layer of lemon curd over the cake cubes, spreading it evenly.
5. Add Blueberries: Place a generous amount of fresh blueberries on top of the lemon curd.
6. Layer Whipped Cream: Add a layer of whipped cream over the blueberries, smoothing it out gently.
7. Repeat Layers: Repeat steps 3 to 6 until your bowl is full, ensuring that the last layer is whipped cream.
8. Chill: Cover the trifle with plastic wrap and refrigerate it for at least 2 hours. Overnight chilling produces an even better-flavored dessert.
9. Garnish: Just before serving, garnish the top of the trifle with lemon zest and fresh mint leaves if desired.
10. Serve: Scoop out servings using a large spoon, ensuring each spoonful contains layers of the delicious components.
