Strawberry and Lemon Trifles
This citrus and sweet, flavor packed dessert is perfect for summer! The lemon flavor is a nice surprise since it's incorporated into the Cool Whip. From the looks of it, you don't see lemon, you just taste it.

Ingredients
8 oz Cool Whip
4 tbs Duncan Hines lemon pie filling
1 loaf cake, cut into small strips or cubes
strawberries, sliced
1/2 cup toasted coconut flakes
Recipe
- In a small mixing bowl, add the Cool Whip and lemon pie filling and begin mixing it together. Smash the chunks of Cool Whip for it to become a creamy consistency.
- If you’re unsure of how to toast coconut flakes: lay 1 cup of coconut flakes on a microwave safe plate. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds until they begin to brown. Stirring every 30 seconds is KEY for evenly toasted flakes.
- Grab individual serving cups and begin assembling the trifles.
- First add a small handful of loaf cake cubes, then a spoonful of strawberries, top with a spoonful or two of the Cool Whip and lemon mixture and sprinkle coconut flakes on top. Done with the first! Now continue assembling the rest of the cups.
- Serve cold.
