If you’re looking for a delightful dessert to impress your guests this holiday season, we’ve got you covered! Our “Easy Easter Dessert” recipe is a perfect combination of sweet, creamy, and festive flavors that will surely be a hit at your gathering.
**Easy Easter Dessert**
**Ingredients:**
– 1 package of vanilla instant pudding mix
– 2 cups of cold milk
– 1 cup of heavy cream
– 1 tablespoon of sugar
– 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
– 1 package of ladyfingers
– 1 cup of fresh berries (such as strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries)
– Pastel-colored sprinkles for decoration
**Instructions:**
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the vanilla instant pudding mix and cold milk. Whisk vigorously for 2 minutes until the pudding mix is fully dissolved and the mixture is thickened. Place the bowl in the refrigerator to chill for about 5 minutes.
2. In a separate mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla extract together until stiff peaks form. This will create a luscious whipped cream to fold into the pudding mixture.
3. Remove the chilled pudding mixture from the refrigerator and gently fold in half of the whipped cream until well combined. Reserve the remaining whipped cream for topping later.
4. Dip each ladyfinger into the leftover whipped cream, then arrange them in a single layer in the bottom of a trifle dish or a clear glass serving bowl. The whipped cream acts as a glue to hold the ladyfingers together.
5. Pour half of the pudding mixture on top of the ladyfingers, spreading it out evenly with a spatula. Add a layer of fresh berries on top of the pudding layer.
6. Repeat the layers by placing a second layer of ladyfingers on top of the berries. Pour the remaining pudding over the ladyfingers, smoothing it out with a spatula.
7. Finish off your Easy Easter Dessert by topping it with dollops of the reserved whipped cream and a generous sprinkle of pastel-colored sprinkles for a festive touch.
8. Chill the dessert in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld together and the ladyfingers to soften slightly.
Enjoy this Easy Easter Dessert with your family and friends as a delightful and visually appealing sweet treat that is sure to impress! The light and airy layers of creamy pudding, fluffy whipped cream, and fresh berries will have everyone coming back for more. Feel free to customize this recipe by using your favorite fruits or adding a drizzle of chocolate sauce for an extra indulgent touch. Happy Easter and happy baking!
