These Nectarine Berry Mini Trifles are AMAZING! Just a couple tweaks to the recipe make it lighter than most trifle desserts!

When I was in the 6th grade, we had a potluck Heritage dinner. Each kid brought a dish from a country of their heritage. My great-great-grandfather came to the US from England when he was 21. He lived in Tombstone for a bit and I thought that was so cool, well, I still think it’s cool. Anyway, I chose England for my dish and my mom made the most delicious trifle. I ran for the buffet table so I could have some because it was GONE so fast.

I have had these mini trifle bowls for years and I hadn’t once made a trifle with them. What is wrong with me?? Anywho, I fixed that last week by making these most delicious Nectarine Berry Mini Trifles. They were a huge hit with the whole family. An added bonus is that it’s lighter than most trifles because I mix the whipped topping with non-fat yogurt.

I also like that I can easily adjust the sweetness for each person using C&H® Honey Granules. It’s a free-flowing mix of granulated pure cane sugar and honey. I can Sprinkle a Taste of Honey for each trifle bowl and there’s no honey mess because of the easy pour spout.

These would be the perfect treat for a dinner party and you can just leave the C&H® Honey Granules canister out on the table.  C&H® Honey Granules is sold where I live, but if they don’t sell it in your area, look for Domino® Honey Granules, the sister brand of C&H®.
