Yesterday - for a charity event I was asked to make a trifle

Never ate one or made one before

It tasted really nice

If you are interested here is the receipe

Ingredients:

  • 12 Trile sponges
  • Sherry
  • 2 tin raspberries in syrup
  • 1/4 cup raspberry jam
  • 2 pints custard
  • 1 pint double cream (for whipping)

Preparation:

Split sponges in half lengthwise and sandwich together with the raspberry preserves. Arrange 6 slices in a shallow baking dish.

Pour over a double serving of sherry

Put 1 tin rasperries and raspberry syrup over sponges.

Spoon 1 pint custard over rasberries.

Do the same again from the beginning making a second layer

Top with whipped cream and any decorations - I used sugar strands

Chill for 24 hours and serve cold

For a smaller trifle halve the portions and only have one layer.

Hi Vicky

The trifle sounds delish, i was looking through the forums and saw the post with trifle in the title haha.

On reading the ingredients though it did make me chuckle - reminded me of that Friends episode where rachel makes a trifle and the recipe pages were stuck together.

Sponge
Fruit
Custart
Mince Beef
Peas
Carrots
Custard
Cream

Yours sounds much better lol, so if this "mutual" event gets arranged, can i come too?? hehe
