Ingredients
  • One jar prepared lemon curd or one can of lemon pie filling
  • 1 large container of Cool Whip or 2 cups freshly whipped heavy cream
  • 1/2 prepared angelfood cake or 1/2 vanilla or butter pound cake. You can make a plain white or yellow cake and use half of that as well.
  • Optional toppings: crushed lemon-flavored hard candies, chopped lemon cookies or the fresh zest of one ripe lemon
  • Four Martini glasses or tall and wide wine glasses with stems

Directions
  1. Cut your pound cake into 1 inch cubes.
  2. Place a few of the cake cubes into the bottom of the glass,
  3. Add a layer of whipped cream or Cool Whip.
  4. Add a layer of lemon curd or lemon pie filling
  5. Add more cake cubes and repeat layers to the top of the glass.
  6. Add a dollop of whipped cream/Cool Whip.
  7. Sprinkle the top with lemon candies, cookies or lemon zest.
  8. Refrigerate and serve.
  9. ------If you want to make a larger recipe for a trifle bowl, just double your ingredients. Since bowls come in so many sizes, you'll just have to use your own judgement as to how much you'll need for your bowl.------
  10. *Try mixing cream cheese in with your lemon curd for a creamier consistency.
  11. *Marscapone cheese also makes a great layer.
  12. If you like Limoncello, you can add a few drops over your cake cubes and drizzle a teaspoonful over the finally topping.
  13. **
  14. Trifles are similar to icebox" cakes without the refrigeration time that it takes to "cure" an icebox cake. You can turn your favorite icebox recipe into a trifle! Tiramisu recipes can also be used for more layering ideas for your trifle recipe.
  15. Parfaits are also like trifles EXCEPT parfaits have more layers of wet ingredients than do trifles. Add some cake or cookies to your favorite parfait recipe and you have a trifle.
