I’m so excited to be joining up with some great blogging friends to bring you guys some great Spring Mason Jar crafts, recipes and decor. (affiliate links included for your convenience) Don’t you just love mason jars! I love them on the practical level for storing things and making salad dressing so easy… but I also love them in decor. I love the blue and green mason jars and this year purple has come on the scene. So with Spring right around the corner and with longer days arriving here’s some great mason jar goodies. Today I’m sharing with you a fun mason jar dessert. This Mason Jar Strawberry Lemon Angel Food Trifle is super simple to make and it’s a light and delicious dessert to serve during Spring and Summer.
I love the combo of lemons and strawberries… it’s so refreshing!
This recipe couldn’t be simpler!
Cut up some angel food cake. I went store bought, but homemade is always great.
I used a small package of lemon instant pudding mix and made it up as directed on the package. Put it in the refrigerator to set up.
3 cups of frozen strawberries. I used frozen since we always have them on hand for smoothies. I put the frozen strawberries in a sauce pan and cooked them down on low till they were soft and had released lots of yummy juice… it takes about 10 minutes.
Let the strawberries cool at least 15 minutes before starting the layering.
You could easily prepare everything the day before and then assemble just before serving.
Place a layer of cut up angel food cake pieces on the bottom of a mason jar
Put a few heaping tablespoons of lemon pudding on top.
Then a few tablespoons of the strawberries.
Then a few tablespoons of whipped topping or whip cream.
Then repeat.
You could easily mix it up with other flavored cakes, puddings and fruit.
The possibilities are endless!
Now here’s all the other amazing mason jar goodies to check out…
