I’ve got to say: this might be one of my all-time favorite recipe creations! I adore trifles for dessert, so imagine my delight when I realized that I could serve one for breakfast!!!
The layers of different ingredients and textures come together in a perfectly sweet, creamy, and crunchy treat. And with Mother’s Day on the horizon, I can’t think of a better way to spoil the special lady in your life!
This Donut Trifle Is No Bake And Fast Prep!
We all know that I’m not much of a baker and I love a good shortcut. My patience and my lifestyle don’t allow me to spend hours in the kitchen crafting the perfect flakey homemade croissant or multi-layer cake from scratch, but I can still impress my guests with some fancy-looking tricks. That’s one more reason that I love this recipe so much!
There’s no baking involved and almost no prep work to deal with. You can assemble the dish in a matter of minutes and store it in the refrigerator until you’re ready to enjoy!
With ingredients like fresh berries, Blue Diamond’s Honey Roasted Almonds,
vanilla-almond flavored creamy pudding, and donuts, your tastebuds will be singing a happy Spring tune!
Plus, they’re pretty…and when you’re serving mom a sweet treat for brunch, presentation gets you a loooooong way (she doesn’t need to know that it only took you a few minutes to prepare)!
