Ingredients

1 Angel Food Cake your own or a purchased one, cut into chunks
1 - 16 ounce Cool Whip (or homemade whipping cream)
1 large package of each: Blackberries and Raspberries
1 package of Strawberries cut into bite sized pieces

Instructions

If baking your own cake, bake the night before, so it can be inverted overnight and ready to use. Cut cake into chunks, set aside.
Wash berries and set on a paper towel to dry. Cut strawberries into bite sized pieces.
Defrost Cool Whip or make your own *homemade whipping cream.
There is really no set "recipe" or "rule" to this dessert, that's what makes it so much fun to make! You can vary the types of berries based on your family's taste. I went heavier on the strawberries and blackberries this particular time. They hold up better than the raspberries, as they tend to get softer.
Simply layer in the trifle, cake in the bottom, then berries then whipped cream. Repeat until the trifle bowl is full. I added a big mound of berries and whipped cream to the top of mine.
Chill until ready to serve.
*Homemade whipped cream: I use about 1/4 cup powdered sugar and 1-2 teaspoons of vanilla to a pint of whipping cream. Whip with mixer until stiff peaks form.
