  • Total Time: 30
  • Yield: 6 cups 1x

Ingredients

Scale

2 cups fresh strawberries, sliced
1 tbsp granulated sugar
1 box (3.4 oz) instant vanilla pudding mix
2 cups cold whole milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups pound cake, cubed
1.5 cups whipped topping

Instructions

Whisk the instant vanilla pudding mix with cold milk in a large bowl for two minutes until thickened.
Stir in the vanilla extract, then refrigerate the pudding for 10 minutes to set.
In a separate bowl, toss the sliced strawberries with sugar and let sit for 5 minutes to release their juices.
To assemble, place a layer of cubed pound cake at the bottom of each of the 6 serving cups.
Add a spoonful of vanilla pudding over the cake, followed by a layer of the macerated strawberries.
Repeat the layers as desired and top each cup with a dollop of whipped topping.

Notes

Chill the assembled cups for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the cake to soak up the strawberry juices and pudding flavors. Serve cold for the best texture.
