How to Make 10 Minute Blueberry Layer Cake

  1. If assembling on a plate, place 4 bamboo skewers into the plate to form a square to support the cake layers.
  2. Place one layer of sponge cake on the plate or at the bottom of your trifle bowl.
  3. Spread 1/2 cup of your chosen yogurt evenly over the cake layer.
  4. Top with 1/2 cup fresh blueberries.
  5. Repeat layers: cake, yogurt, blueberries.
  6. Top with remaining yogurt and blueberries.
  7. If desired, garnish with extra blueberries or a sprinkle of powdered sugar.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving (or up to 24 hours). Serve chilled.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
