Whipped Topping:
- 1 1/2 cups whipped topping or whipped cream

Instructions
- Prepare the pudding: Whisk the instant vanilla pudding mix with cold milk in a bowl for 2 minutes. Let it sit for 5 minutes to thicken. Gently fold in the whipped topping or whipped cream until smooth and creamy.
- Layer the trifle cups: Cut the pound cake into 1-inch cubes. In individual cups or jars, layer the dessert starting with cake cubes, followed by a spoonful of the pudding mixture, then a mix of berries.
