CHERRY TRIFLE
Trifle was a staple dessert for almost every English kid’s Birthday Party.
They were traditionally made in big bowls which looked overwhelming and clumsy.
So, here’s my more grown up version with combined elements from other deserts including a crunchy sweet crumble topping and light sponge cake laced with Kirsch and Amaretto, fresh cherries, crème anglaise, sweet cherry sauce and whipped vanilla cream, served in a chilled elegant glass which reveals the beautiful colorful layers.

‘If you have any leftover sponge cake and crumble then these combine well in this recipe. Here I have rescued a little of each to make this trifle a real treat’.
BUILD THE TRIFLE:
Place the light sponge cake in the base of the glass and lace with Amaretto, Kirsch or other liquor.
♦
Build layers of chopped cherries, crème anglaise, crunchy crumble, sweet cherry sauce and whipped vanilla cream.
Grown up tastes in a classic dessert that’ll make you feel like a kid!
