Congrats on the wedding anniversary cool girl!

Right, a simple yet easy trifle recipe, you will need:

fresh or canned fruit (e.g. berries, peaches or whatever floats your boat)

jelly-a flavour that compliments the fruit

trifle sponges/fingers or another plain cake (I've even seen nice trifles made with swiss rolls!!)

whipping cream

instant custard

What to do:

make the jelly following the instructions. Assemble the sponge/fingers and fruit at the bottom of the serving dish(es). Pour over the jelly, and allow the jelly to set.

Make the instant custard, and allow to cool slightly before spooning onto the set jelly.

Whip the cream until it forms soft peaks, spoon onto the custard mixture.

Decorate the cream with whatever takes your fancy-fruit, chocolate shavings etc etc.

Serve chilled and with a smile!

Re: easy trifle recipe

This is how my mom makes fruit trifle

take a can of fruits (syrup one)

1 small plain cake or plain chocolate cake

custard any flavour you like (strawberry , vanilla , mangoe )

1 packet of Jelly ( again any flavour like banana , strawberry , pine apple etc)

Method :

  1. Separate fruits from can and set the syrup aside (we will use it)

  2. Prepare custard

  3. In a dish put a layer of cake (u can cute cake into pieces according to the size of dish) and then pour the syrup from fruits can on it. Just enough to make it wet don't soak it.

  4. Then put a layer of Jelly (again cut the jelly according the size of dish)

  5. Then a layer of fruits.

  6. Then pour the custard.

  7. Decorate the trifle with some cream and pieces of chocolate , chopped pistachio and almonds .............. you can also save some jelly and cut it out in different shapes and put it on the custard

  8. Keep it in fridge for good 2-3 hours.

You can do the above completely with mangoes like use mango jelly , mango custard and use chunks of mangoes instead of can of fruits. Same thing u can do with pine apple and use vanilla custard ...you can use vanilla custard for any type of fruits.
