One of my favorite parts of this time of year is the fresh seasonal fruit that is just begging to be eaten. I had a huge carton of blueberries just waiting to be used in this decadent Lemon Blueberry Trifle.

This Lemon Blueberry Trifle has layers of angel food cake, creamy lemon filling and fresh blueberries. There’s something magical when lemon and blueberry get together. It was a marriage meant to be.

The lemon filling is made by whisking your lemon pudding mix and cold milk together.

It’s really important to use a quality whole milk when you’re making desserts especially when milk is one of the main ingredients like in this recipe so that you get that indulgent taste.

I’ve been known to add a splash of milk into our marinara sauce or other dinners for a little extra creaminess.
