Tasty Trifle

By HappyChappy11

You can attempt to make the custard yourself, but (especially if your name is Beatrix) I would recommend saving yourself the hassle and just buying some in a tin..

Preparation

Step 1

Make up the jelly according to the pack instructions.

Step 2

Roughly break the trifle sponges into eights using your fingers. Place into a large bowl.
Spoon the jam into the bowl and stir well. Try to ensure all the sponges are covered with a thin layer of jam.

Step 3

Add the fruit, giving a quick stir. Try to keep them evenly spaced (not all at the top or all at the bottom).

Step 4

When the jelly is cool but not set, pour it into the bowl. It should just cover all the sponge and fruit.
Place in the fridge to set.

Step 5

When the jelly is set (it should not take too long and it's not a major issue if it's not completely solid) pour the custard evenly over the top.

Step 6

Whisk the whipping cream vigourously in a bowl until soft peaks start to form, but it is still fairly liquidy.
Add the sugar.
Continue whisking until firm peaks form.

Step 7

Dollop the whipped cream on top of the custard and use the spoon to make it as evenly spread as possible.
Sprinkle any remaining fruit (and sprinkles if you like) on the top and serve.
