Ingredients for Strawberry Trifle

Method

Directions to Prepare Strawberry Trifle

  1. 1

    Prepare the Custard

    In a saucepan, whisk together the custard powder and sugar. Gradually add the milk, stirring continuously. Heat over medium heat until the mixture thickens. Once thickened, remove from heat and let it cool.

  2. 2

    Layer the Ingredients

    In a large trifle dish, cut the vanilla sponge cake into cubes and layer them at the bottom of the dish. Pour half of the cooled custard over the sponge layer.

  3. 3

    Add Strawberries

    Slice half of the fresh strawberries and layer them over the custard. Repeat the layers with the remaining sponge, custard, and strawberries.

  4. 4

    Whip the Cream

    In a mixing bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Spread the whipped cream over the top layer of strawberries.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    Garnish with fresh mint leaves and additional strawberry slices if desired. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving.
