  • Total Time: 0 hours
  • Yield: 12 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box lemon cake mix
  • 1 cup water
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 3.4 ounce boxes instant french vanilla pudding mix
  • 4 cups cold whole milk
  • 2 8 ounce containers whipped topping
  • 1/2 cup lemon curd
  • 3 cups fresh blueberries
  • Lemon slices and mint for garnish optional

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray a 9×13 baking dish with baking spray and set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, mix the cake mix, water, eggs, and oil using an electric hand mixer on low speed for 30 seconds, then medium speed for 2 minutes.
  3. Pour the batter into the baking dish and bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let it cool completely in the baking dish.
  4. In a separate bowl, combine the pudding mix and cold milk, whisking by hand for 2 minutes. Cover and refrigerate until assembling the trifle.
  5. In another bowl, mix one container of whipped topping with lemon curd until fully combined. Refrigerate covered until needed.
  6. Once cooled, cut the cake into 1-2 inch cubes.
  7. Place 5 cups of cake cubes in the bottom of a standard-sized trifle dish.
  8. Pour half of the pudding over the cake cubes.
  9. Add 1 cup of fresh blueberries on top of the pudding.
  10. Spread the lemon curd mixture over the blueberries.
  11. Repeat the layers: add another 5 cups of cake cubes, the remaining pudding, and another cup of blueberries.
  12. Top with the second container of whipped topping and garnish with remaining blueberries, lemon slices, and mint if desired. Serve immediately or chill until serving.

Notes

For extra flavor, you can add a layer of lemon zest between the pudding and whipped topping.
Make sure the cake is completely cooled before assembling to maintain the trifle’s structure.
Feel free to substitute the blueberries with other berries for a mixed berry version.
