Made this for my hubby's birthday and he loved it.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

You can never go wrong when you serve a trifle. The flavor combination of strawberries and pineapples is delicious. Placing the pound cake under the broiler adds a nice crunchy texture to the trifle. In-between the pound cake is a sweet and tangy pudding layer. This easy dessert is not only delicious but beautiful when presented.

How To Make danielle's strawberry & pineapple pudding trifle

Brush sliced cake pieces with melted butter and sprinkle with half of the sugar. Place on a buttered sheet pan and broil until sugar starts to melt and edges start to turn brown. Let sit to cool.

Blend cream cheese until smooth. Add in sugar and blend well. Make pudding in a separate bowl according to the pie filling directions on the box. Then mix with cream cheese mixture.
3
Mix half of the Cool Whip and crushed pineapples; blend well.
4
Place a few cake slices down covering the bottom of a trifle bowl or a large sheet cake pan.
5
Scatter 1/4 of the sliced strawberries over the cake.
6
Cover with half of the pudding mixture.

Scatter 1/4 strawberries over pudding. Repeat this step using the rest of the pudding and saving a few slices of strawberries for the top. Spread Cool Whip evenly over top and place remaining strawberries on top. Refrigerate, scoop with a big spoon, and enjoy.
