Instructions

Wash, hull, and slice the strawberries, reserving about 3/4 cup for decoration.
In a medium bowl, whip heavy cream on medium speed until stiff peaks form and set aside.
In a large bowl, whip cream cheese until light and fluffy for 2-3 minutes. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, whip until combined, then increase speed and whip until fluffy. Fold in the reserved whipped cream with a rubber spatula until combined.
Layer half of the pound cake cubes in a trifle dish, then half of the berries over the cake. Spread half of the whipped topping evenly on top.
Repeat the process with another layer of pound cake, berries, and the remaining whipped cream mixture. Smooth the top with an offset spatula, line the edges with reserved berries, and garnish with fresh mint.

Notes

This dessert is best enjoyed the same day it is prepared.
If you need to prep in advance, it can be refrigerated for up to 24 hours.
Feel free to customize with your favorite berries or add a fruit layer of berries between the layers.
