This chocolate trifle looks elegant, but it's super easy to make! Serve with vanilla ice cream in shallow bowls.

End your outdoor dinner party on a sweet note with this delicate fruit trifle. We love all the different flavors and texture contrasts in this simple dessert. (Plus, it looks really fancy, but comes together in just 15 minutes with minimal prep work!)

I made this trifle for my mom (who is diabetic) for her birthday. It turned out REALLY yummy. What little bit of sugar is in here, could either be left out completely or could be replaced with another sweetener. The agave nectar is low on the glycemic index.

Light & Delicious

I got this from the Taste of Home website and man is it good. It is one of the lite desserts. Their ingredients yielded a little higher calories but not much. It makes 18 servings of 3/4 C each of a very rich holiday dessert layered with gingerbread cake, pumpkin/butterscotch pudding mix and reduced fat whipped topping. Yum!

Chocolate is my daughter Lela's favorite dessert. This is a healthy way for her to enjoy chocolate, and plenty of it!

If you’re short on time, this big on flavor dessert is perfect to make. So easy, quick and absolutely yummy! This isn’t your ordinary strawberry shortcake either. We’re starting with a store-bought fat-free angel food cake, adding fat-free vanilla pudding and Cool Whip, lots of fresh sliced strawberries, blueberries and drizzling a store bought strawberry glaze. You’ll love how light, fluffy, and flavorful this is.

Made some substitutions for sugar/fat free versions of the original recipe's ingredients.

Taken from the Volumetrics Weight-Control Plan, I used frozen wild blueberries and blackberries instead of raspberries.

A nice summer dessert

Delicious low fat dessert.

light dessert with lots of fresh berries

This is my simplified and less "calorific" version of my Liverpool Nana's fabulous trifle. She included sherry and fruit salad in the cake part and used real whipped cream instead of Cool Whip, but I've opted to go without them. You could certainly go traditional, though - just make sure to add in the extra calories.

It looks absolutely decadent, but it's really not a huge number of calories per serving - even with the quite large serving sizes suggested. It's also surprisingly good for you.

I entered it as a Christmas treat, because it's a tradition in our family to have it every Christmas. However, it doesn't have to be saved for Christmas. It's also great for parties or any time you want a beautiful and tasty dessert.

It keeps well in the fridge for a few days. So, you don't have to eat it all at once.

Use fat free and sugar free items to make this light.
