Labor Day is upon us which means the long days of summer are quickly dwindling down and apple cider, lightweight jackets and fall boots are right around the corner.
With this coming weekend being the "last hoorah" of Summer most people will be attending BBQ's and swim parties and in need of a delicious dessert to bring. What better then a patriotic trifle.
The below recipe is super easy to whip up and I promise you, it does not disappoint!
Happy Labor Day Everyone!
Patriotic Pudding with Nilla Wafers
recipe adapted from Buttercup
What you'll need:
1 1/2 cups cold water
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
2/3 cup instant vanilla pudding powder
3 cups heavy cream
One box Nilla wafers
Fresh strawberries and blueberries
Directions:
On the low speed of an electric mixer, blend the water, milk, and pudding powder until thoroughly mixed, about 1 minute. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours (or overnight) until firm.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold the pudding mixture into the whipped cream until well incorporated.
In a large bowl, starting with the wafers, make 5-6 layers with Nilla wafers, strawberries and then the pudding mixture, until all the pudding is gone. End with pudding and top with fresh blueberries and crushed wafers on top. Refrigerate about 30 minutes before serving.
