    Trifle

    Ingredients

    • Line a large bowl (preferably glass so that you get a nice effect)
    • along the sides and in the bottom with lady fingers or sponge cakes
    • (those commercial ones with jam in them are nice just cut them
    • in two and face them jam side out). Add a drained can of fruit
    • salad to the bowl, reserving the juice. Make Jello (strawberry or
    • raspberry are good) according to directions, using the juice from
    • the fruit salad as part of the liquid. Chill until Jello sets. Mum
    • usually does this overnight. Make custard (mum uses Bird's) with
    • 3 Tbsp custard powder, 3 Tbsp sugar and 2 cups milk. (This is much
    • thicker than the directions suggest.) Add warm custard to the bowl.
    • Chill in refrigerator to set. Serve with whipped cream.

    Instructions

    Some people like to sprinkle some sherry on the lady fingers/sponge cake before adding the fruit. The amount depends on your taste.
