Ingredients:
- 1 pound fresh raspberries
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 package of sponge cake or ladyfingers
- 1/4 cup raspberry jam or preserves
Instructions:
1. Start by melting the white chocolate chips according to the package instructions. Set aside to cool slightly.
2. In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Gently fold in the melted white chocolate until well combined.
3. Cut or tear the sponge cake into bite-sized pieces. Spread a layer of the cake pieces in the bottom of a trifle dish or glass bowl.
4. Dollop some of the white chocolate whipped cream over the cake layer, and then top with a layer of fresh raspberries. Drizzle with a bit of the raspberry jam or preserves.
5. Repeat the layers, alternating between cake, whipped cream, raspberries, and jam, until you reach the top of the dish.
6. Refrigerate the trifle for at least 2 hours, or overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the layers to set.
When you’re ready to serve, garnish the top with a few extra raspberries and a dusting of powdered sugar or shaved white chocolate. This trifle is best enjoyed chilled, making it the perfect dessert for those hot summer days or evening gatherings on the patio.
