This mouthwatering recipe is absolutely delicious and was given to me by a friend. It's so easy to make but feels really special. Ingredients:
1-1/2 cups zinfandel wine or grape juice |
1/2 cup sugar, divided |
1 quart fresh strawberries, sliced |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
2 loaves (10-3/4 ounces each) frozen pound cake, thawed |
2 cups heavy whipping cream |
additional fresh strawberries |
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan, combine wine and 1/3 cup sugar. Bring to a boil; cook until liquid is reduced to about 1/2 cup. Set saucepan in ice water and stir the mixture for 3 minutes. Stir in strawberries and vanilla.
2. Meanwhile, cut one cake in half widthwise (save the other half for another use). Cube remaining cake; set aside.
3. In a small bowl, beat cream until it begins to thicken. Add remaining sugar; beat until soft peaks form.
4. In a 3-qt. trifle bowl or glass serving bowl, layer a third of the cake cubes, strawberry mixture and whipped topping. Repeat twice. Chill until serving. Garnish with additional strawberries. Yield: 15 servings.
