This dessert recipe came from a friend from England, Gill Overfelt. She is one of the best people in the world (an angel in disguise!). It is delicious and elegant looking layered in a trifle bowl or individual dessert glasses.

HOW TO MAKE A TRIFLE: RECIPE + STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE - TASTE OF HOME

From tasteofhome.com
  • Choose the right vessel. A trifle bowl is your best bet here: They are typically glass (to show off your yummy ingredients) and tall and deep (so you have room for adequate layers).
  • Start with a sturdy base. The traditional English trifle starts with a layer of ladyfingers or sponge cake soaked in liquor, fruit juice or even coffee.
  • Add a creamy layer. After laying the base, a fluffy layer of creaminess is a must in a trifle. Homemade or store-bought custard, pudding or whipped cream help bind the dish together, adding a light and delicious layer that breaks up the heavier ingredients.
  • Lay on fresh fruit. Seasonal fruit helps provide the right juiciness and sweetness to a trifle. Layer fresh fruit like strawberries, bananas and raspberries on top of the cream.
  • Repeat. After adding the fruit, you can return to Step 1, and start all over, or take liberty and layer the ingredients as you would like until the trifle dish is full.
