13 Tempting & Easy Trifle Recipes
One of our favorite desserts to serve when we've got lots of company coming over is a trifle. For starters, trifle recipes are easy to make and can be made ahead of time, which means you can spend more time putting together the rest of your menu or relaxing with your guests. Trifles also look great on a dessert table, since they're traditionally served in glass bowls that reveal all the yummy flavors inside. Finally, there's no fancy slicing or cutting involved. Serving is as easy as taking a big ol' scoop!
