Yesterday I made fruit trifle. It is the easiest dessert recipe, and can be made in so many ways depending on your mood!
I apologize as I can't give measurements for this, because I am not sure how to and it really depends on how much you want to put.
You can alter the ingredients as you see fit. This is what I normally make.
Ingredients
- Cake (butter or marble)
- Jelly (prefer the instant type and not the ready-made ones)
- Mixed fruit in a can (with some liquid reserved)
- Custard (can be thick or thin to your liking)
- Whipped cream (can add sugar or vanilla to your liking)
- Strawberries
- Kiwi
- Mandarin oranges in a can (if you want to use fresh instead, I suggest getting rid of the skin)
- Peaches
- Or you know, go crazy!
Instructions
- Line your dish with slices of cake (thin or thick, up to you).
- Using the liquid reserved from the can of mixed fruit, pour it over the cake. Do not put too much to make it soggy.
- Prepare your jelly according to box instructions, and pour it over after letting it cool for 10 minutes. Let it set a little before continuing. If you are using ready-made jelly, roughly mash it up and pour it over.
- Prepare custard according to instructions, or use ready-made and pour over the jelly layer.
- Cool in the fridge for 30 minutes before topping it with whipped cream. You do not want to put whipped cream on hot custard. If you used ready-made custard, you can put whipped cream over it instantly.
- Top with desired toppings. Refrigerate until ready to serve!
- Best served cool so allow 1-2 hours in the fridge for best impact. And enjoy!
