ingredients
-
For the Mango Fool
- 1 (32 ounce) can sweetened mango pulp
- 32 ounces heavy whipping cream
-
For the Trifle
- 3 pints fresh strawberries
- 2 loaves of good poundcake
- 26 ounces coconut rum (optional)
directions
- Wash, hull and slice your strawberries and set aside.
- Using a serrated knife cut the pound cake into 1/2 inch slices and then each slice into thirds. Set aside.
- Pour all the cream in a large bowl and add the juice of 1/2 a lime. Whip either manually or with a mixer until stiff peaks form.
- Using a spatula, about a cup at a time slowly fold in the mango pulp until fully incorporated (the cream will soften but retain body).
- Now, here's hoping you have a large, deep glass dish of some sort! Begin with a layer of poundcake, layer tightly but now so tightly that they're smashed. If you're using alcohol pour about 1/3 to 1/2 a cup of the alcohol over the cake and allow to soak inches
- Then put a layer of strawberries on the cake. Next place the sliced strawberries around the perimeter of the cake and against the glass with the narrow end up.
- Now spoon a generous amount of the Mango Fool over the strawberries. Then a layer of cake, alcohol, strawberries, Fool and so on until you reach the top of your dish.
- At this point I like to decorate with some mint leaves or strawberries on top.
- Chill for about an hour and serve!

I'm 26, married with two four legged children:-). My husband and I love to spend time playing scrabble, riding our bikes, messing around with our dogs and in general enjoying life.
We just joined our local Adult Kickball league so we're both excited about that! We do have to figure out ways to work off all the yummy food I make from 'Zaar after all:-)
