4th of July blueberry, strawberry trifle



Ingredients:
·         1  angel food cake boxed mix, 
·         1 quart strawberries, sliced
·         1 pint blueberries

For the cream filling:
·         6 tbsp fat-free sweetened condensed milk
·         1 1/2 cups cold water
·         1 package sugar-free white chocolate instant pudding mix
·         12 oz fat-free frozen whipped topping, thawed



  1. Follow directions on cake box mix to make angel food cake. I used my Kitchen stand up mixer and forgot to put my whisk on when doing the egg white package first. I couldn't figure out why it was sloshing everywhere while it was mixing..Finally it dawned on me to change from the paddle blade to the whisk blade..so much neater. I liked the idea on the back of the box to cool the cake on a bottle upside down. Once its cooled cut into inch cube size. Wait until the cake is cut and ready to go before starting  next step
      2.  Whisk the condensed milk and water in a bowl. 

    • Whisk in the pudding mix for 2 minutes. 
    • Let stand for 2 minutes or until soft-set;
    • fold in the whipped  topping.


        Arrange half of the cake in the bottom of a 14-cup trifle dish. 


    • Sprinkle evenly with a layer of blueberries. 
    • Spread half of the cream mixture over the blueberries and gently spread (I piped it using a plastic bag and cut the corner off). 
    • Top with a layer of strawberries.
    • Layer the remaining cake cubes on top of the strawberries, then add more blueberries and top with the remaining cream mixture. Finish with the remaining strawberries and blueberries

                 We are so blessed to live in the USA and I am proud to be an American.Our freedom would not be possible without our brave soldiers laying down their lives  every single day for us.Thank you to all of our soldiers past and present who have unselfishly given their lives and served our country for us.
             As a family we have shared many great gatherings at our house with plenty to eat, boating, skiing, tubing, and lots of laughter and fun. My husbands side of the family is quite large, so when they come to our house there is alot of people. It's always been wicked hot, and sometimes rain was inevitable. Sometimes it would quench the plans for fireworks. And other times there would be a rain, but then it would stop and rainbows would appear and the fireworks fun would begin on our beach. We could watch them go off not only all around our lake. Sometimes the mosquitoes would get viscous. I can just see the glee in the childrens eyes as they got to light a firecracker. Many years ago when we had our dog, Lady, she would chase the firecrackers. What a crazy dog.
                   I also thank the greatest soldier of them all, Jesus/Yeshua. He fought an unbelievable battle for us and went willingly to the cross and paid the death penalty for us and our sins so that the sting of death would no longer hold us in the grave and eternity is now available to those that who choose to accept his gift of salvation.
                    Below are 2 songs I recorded at home. I recite part of the preamble of the American Declaration of Independance before the Star Spangled Banner. I have sang many versions of this song but like this one the best.
