Trifle will appear on more Christmas tables this year than Christmas pudding in the UK. It's a timeless classic, seeped in history that dates back to Tudor times and King Henry VIII.
The ultimate comfort food, a dish that I served to Princes William and Harry in the Royal nursery and also The Queen and her guests over the holidays.
Every home cook believes they have the best trifle recipe... well, here's mine! Delicious strawberry jam sponge seeped in Drambuie syrup, syrup, sprinkled with raspberries, strawberries and blueberries and covered with a layer of gorgeous home made vanilla bean egg custard. Then topped with whipped cream and sprinkled with grated chocolate. What's not to love about TRIFLE!

Traditional English Raspberry Almond Trifle
Makes 6-8 portions
For the base;
1 Sara lee all butter pound cake (10.75oz)
Half a 12 ounce jar raspberry jam
1 cup fresh raspberries
1 cup granulated sugar
1 ¼ cups water
4 tbs sherry (optional)
For the custard;
2 cups heavy cream
5 egg yolks
1/3 cup granulated sugar
2 tsp cornstarch
½ tsp vanilla paste
For the topping;
1 ¼ cups heavy cream (whipped to soft peak)
1 Cadburys chocolate flake (or 2oz milk chocolate)
¼ cup toasted flaked almonds
Cut the pound cake into ¾ inch slices and sandwich with the jam. Layer into a large glass bowl and sprinkle with the raspberries.
In a small pan boil the sugar and water for about 5 minutes to make a syrup. Add the sherry (if using) to the syrup and pour over the sponge.
Bring the 1 pint of heavy cream to a boil in a large saucepan. Whilst it is heating, mix the egg yolks, sugar, vanilla and cornstarch together in a small bowl. Pour the boiling cream over the egg mix and return it to the pan. Stir over a low heat until it just starts to thicken. Don’t over cook. Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly before pouring over the sponge.
Refrigerate the trifle until the custard has set. Then spoon the whipped cream over the top of the custard. Decorate with the chocolate flake or grated chocolate and almonds.
