Ingredients

instant vanilla pudding
1 (3.5-ounce package)
milk
2 (cups)
strawberry jam
1/2 (cup (or preserves))

Instructions
1
Begin by lining a large plate with two paper towels. Spread the yogurt evenly over the paper towels and cover it with two additional paper towels. Allow it to sit for 5 minutes to drain excess liquid.
2
After the yogurt has drained, scrape it into a large mixing bowl. Add the instant vanilla pudding and milk to the bowl. Whisk the mixture until it is well blended and smooth, which should take about 2 minutes. Set the pudding mixture aside.
3
In a separate small bowl, combine the strawberry jam and sherry wine, mixing well. Set this aside for later use.
4
To assemble the trifle, layer half of the cubed angel food cake in the bottom of a large trifle bowl. Gently top this layer with half of the prepared pudding mixture, spreading it evenly.
5
Next, add half of the strawberry jam and half of the drained peach slices, followed by half of the sliced strawberries. Repeat the layering process with the remaining cake cubes, pudding mixture, jam, and fruit.
6
For a beautiful presentation, garnish the top with extra slices of peach and strawberry, or finish with a dollop of whipped topping if desired. Chill the trifle in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.
