Mini Mountain High Yoghurt Trifles

Recipe by A Cozy Kitchen.

Ingredients

• POUND CAKE
• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 3/4 teaspoons fine-grain sea salt
• 1 cup Mountain High Yoghurt
• 3/4 cup white granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup light or dark brown sugar
• 3 large eggs
• 1/2 cup olive oil
• BERRY YOGHURT PUREE
• 1/2 pound strawberries
• 2 tablespoons white granulated sugar
• Pinch of salt
• 2 cups Mountain High Yoghurt
• TOPPINGS
• 1/2 cup pistachios, chopped
• 1 tablespoon dried rose petals

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an 8 x 5-inch or 9 x 5-inch loaf pan. Line the bottom with parchment paper. Grease and flour the pan.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In another medium-sized bowl, whisk together the yoghurt, white sugar, brown sugar and eggs. Slowly whisk the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. With a rubber spatula, fold the olive oil into the batter, making sure it’s completely incorporated. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for about 40-45 minutes, or until a cake tester placed in the center of the loaf comes out clean. Allow to cool completely.
3. Meanwhile, let’s make the berry yoghurt puree. In a food processor, add the strawberries, sugar and salt and pulse until pureed. Run the strawberry puree through a fine-mesh strainer and discard the seeds and pulp. In a medium bowl, combine the yoghurt and strawberry puree.
4. To assemble, start by cutting the pound cake into small cubes. Add a handful of pound cake cubes to a glass. Top with a liberal dollop of strawberry yoghurt, a sprinkling of pistachios and rose petals. Repeat until you have about 3 layers. Repeat with the remaining trifles. A COZY KITCHEN >
