How to Make Strawberry Trifle

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Cut a 10-inch round sponge cake vertically into halves.
  3. Slice each half into 1-inch thick fingers.
  4. In a medium bowl, prepare the topping mix according to package directions using 1 cup of skimmed milk. Alternatively, whip 1 cup of heavy cream (or low-fat alternative) until stiff peaks form.
  5. Layer half of the cake fingers in a 2-quart serving bowl.
  6. Spread 1 cup of plain yogurt (or orange-flavored) evenly over the cake.
  7. Top with half of the whipped topping (about ½ cup).
  8. Arrange 1 cup sliced strawberries and ½ cup sliced kiwi on top of the whipped topping.
  9. Repeat layers 5-8 with the remaining cake, yogurt, whipped topping, strawberries, and kiwi.
  10. Sprinkle ½ cup slivered almonds over the top.
  11. Garnish with whole strawberries (optional).
  12. For an alternative citrus twist: Grate the zest of one orange and one lemon and sprinkle over the sponge before layering.
  13. For a mandarin variation: Use orange-flavored yogurt and top with 1 cup of drained mandarin segments instead of strawberries.
  14. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to allow flavors to meld.
