Fruit trifle (what? Trifle)

A great, moderately healthy summer time favorite. Easy to make, and taste like happiness.

Ingredients

Yeah, yeah, I break from the norm here, this ain't from scratch, but it's still good, so shove it


1 box Angel Food cake mix

1 quart strawberries

1 cup blueberries/blackberries

1 cup raspberries

(can use any berry mix you want. . . but mine is the best)

1 small box fat-free, sugar-free white chocolate pudding mix

1 small box fat-free, sugar-free cheesecake pudding mix

1 small tub Lite Cool Whip (can be the cheap shit, but we all know what I mean when I say that)

1 quart milk. . . You should have enough milk kickin' around. . . who doesn't have milk?

Powdered sugar (about a cup, maybe more)


Got my shit, now what?

In a jelly-roll pan lined with parchment paper, make the angel food cake. Follow the box, add water, whisk it, bake it. If you fuck that up, you don't deserve to be happy.


Once you pull that baby outta the oven without an oven mitt using ol' DeadHand, while it's cooling, getcha a kitchen towel and dust the fuck out of it with powdered sugar, then flip your cake/jelly roll pan onto it, flinging the sugar ALL OVER the fucking kitchen. Dust the fuck out of the cake side up, then roll firmly, but without crushing the cake up in the towel.


Stuff it in the fridge for about 45min


Now, mix your other shit.


Mix both the pudding mixes and 1 quart (4 cups) milk. Whisk it until you wrist falls off. . . make sure you get some good hip-action going and say "whisk, whisk whisk" as fast as you can, it helps.


Carefully fold-in your 'Whipped Topping" (CoolWhip) until just blended together.


Get your cake outta the fridge and slowly, carefully unroll it (it'll prolly break because you're a fuck-up). Spread about 2/3 of the pudding mixture edge-to-edge on the cake, then slice your strawberries, and drop a mix of your berries onto it. Save some for the top, you want it to be pretty.


Carefully and semi-loosely, roll it back up, and set onto a big enough tray/plate. Spread the rest of your pudding on top, and finish off what berries are left after that little berry-stealing-midget is done sneaking into the kitchen and eating all your ingredients.


You're done. This is best if done the morning of, but is tolerable the next day. The cake tends to get soggy.
