Trifle is a delicious dessert which consists of a combination of jelly, sponge cake and custard.
Ingredients
Sponge cake: 8 pieces
Vanilla Custard Powder: 60 gm
Milk: 1 litre
Raspberry or Strawberry or Cherry Jelly: 85 gm packet
Raspberry or strawberry jam: As required
Whipping cream: ½ cup
Sugar: 8 tbsp
Chocolate Shavings: ½ cup (optional)
Peach: 1-2 Sliced (optional)
Instructions
Mix the custard powder in 1 cup of cold milk. Boil the rest of the milk. Add the custard powder mixture slowly to the boiling milk stirring continuously. Keep cooking and stirring on low heat till custard thickens. Add 5-6 tbsp sugar and mix well till sugar melts. Place custard in the refrigerator for cooling.
Prepare the jelly as per instructions given on the packet.
Apply jam on both sides of the sponge cake piece. Take a dessert bowl and arrange a sponge cake piece on the base. You can also cut the sponge cake into very small pieces if you like it that way. I used a single piece big enough to cover the base.
Cover the sponge cake with slices of peach. You can also use some other fruit if you do not like peach.
Pour a part of the jelly mixture over the cake and fruit. Place in refrigerator till the jelly sets.
Put a part of the custard mixture over the jelly.
Whip the whipping cream till it forms soft peaks. Add 2 tbsp sugar and whip to form stiff peaks.
Put a spoon or two of whipped cream over the custard.
Finally garnish with chocolate shavings. This step is optional.
