5 Minute Lemon, Blueberry and Ginger Trifle
The Fastest Summer Worthy Dessert Around
Equipment
Ingredients
- ~30 Trader Joe's Triple Ginger Snap Cookies smashed into pieces
- 1 jar Trader Joe's Lemon Curd
- 1 pint Heavy Whipping Cream whipped
- 1 pint Blueberries rinsed and dried
- 1-2 tablespoon Powdered Sugar (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla or Almond Extract (optional)
Instructions
- Get out your TJ’s Triple Ginger Snaps and bash/blend/process/break them into smaller (read bite sized) pieces.
- Whip Heavy Whipping Cream until stiff peaks appear. OPTIONAL: You can add a bit of powdered sugar for extra sweetness and a little stability, or a little vanilla or almond extract for some extra flavor, but you don’t need to.
- Fold TJ’s Lemon Curd into whipped cream
- OPTIONAL: If you have an extra minute to spare, mash up about ¼ of the blueberries with a fork and toss with a little sugar and lemon juice. Stir the rest of the berries in this mix to help them macerate (i.e. get juicy and delicious) a bit before layering them in the jars.
- Layer your chosen vessel(s) with cookie crumbs, lemon whipped cream, then blueberries. Make sure to make your layers thick enough to see separate layers through the glass. Repeat at least once. Watch your friends’ looks of total ecstasy and relish in knowing it only took you 5 minutes of effort and 4 ingredients to get there. You’re a damn CDP pro, yo.
Notes
Can be made ahead of time, just note that the cookies will become softer over time and truly begin to resemble a British trifle.
