Oh My Gosh....This is HEAVEN! I made this for mother's day weekend and there were no leftovers (we did share it with my sister's family)! This will definitely be a Mother's day tradition at our house!Ingredients:
2 qts. strawberries, sliced
1 c. sugar, divided
2 (8 oz.) packages cream cheese, softened
3 Tbsp. lime juice (fresh squeezed is better if you can)
3 c. whipped, whipping cream (be sure to whip it before you mix it with the cream cheese mixture)
1 loaf (10 oz.) pound cake cubed (Sara Lee in the freezer section works great)
1 large chocolate bar grated, divided
Chocolate swirls and strawberries to garnish.
Directions:
1. Toss strawberries with 1/2 c. sugar. Allow to chill in refrigerator until juicy (for about an hour).
2. Cream together the lime juice, cream cheese and the remainder of the sugar. Add whip cream and blend until creamy (make sure you blend the cream cheese, lime juice and sugar first, or the acid will curdle the whipped cream.).
3. Drain juice off the strawberries and drizzle onto the cake cubes.
4. Layer in trifle bowl as follows:
1/2 cake cube on bottom
1/3 cream cheese mixture
1/2 strawberry mixture
chocolate shavings
the rest of the cake cubes
1/3 cream cheese mixture
the rest of the strawberry mixture
chocolate shavings
the rest of the cream cheese mixture
chocolate shavings
Strawberries to garnish.
And serve! This awesome recipe is from KSL's Studio 5 website.
