Ingredients
- 1 box angel food cake mix
- 1 1/4 cup Lemonade use lemonade in place of water according to your box cake mix, adjust accordingly.
- 2 lemons zested and squeezed divided
- 2 cups fresh blueberries
- 16 ounces Cool Whip
For the Tart Lemon Glaze
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 2-3 Tablespoons fresh squeezed lemon juice
- 1 Tablespoon Lemon Zest
Instructions
- Prepare your angel food cake by following the cake mix instructions, but replacing the amount of water it calls for with lemonade. (I used Simply Lemonade) Add in 1 Tablespoon of the lemon zest to cake mix, too. Bake according to box instructions, cool. Cut cake into cubes.
- Prepare the glaze by mixing together powdered sugar, lemon zest and lemon juice. Add more or less sugar/juice until you get to the consistency you want.
- In a trifle bowl, place a layer of the angel food cake cubes in the bottom. Drizzle with 1/3 of the glaze. Top with 1/3 of the Cool Whip. Sprinkle with 1/3 of the blueberries. Repeat that same layer once again: a layer of the angel food cake cubes in the bottom. Drizzle with 1/3 of the glaze. Top with 1/3 of the Cool Whip. Sprinkle with 1/3 of the blueberries. For the final layer, fill the top of the trifle dish with remaining cake cubes, mounding them higher in the middle. Drizzle the remaining glaze over the top of the cake, and scatter the rest of the blueberries over the top, place a big dollop of Cool Whip in the center, add a couple of blueberries to the top and sprinkle with remaining lemon zest.
- Keep in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
