Here is the sherry trifle receipe if anyone wants to try it.
I will even let you pay for the imgredients. Lol
This is in UK measurements so you might have to convert.
Ps don’t try this if you are dieting!
8oz chopped fresh strawberries
6oz chopped fresh raspberries
2 tablespoons of caster sugar (very fine sugar not the usual granulated stuff)
1 tablespoon icing sugar
1/2 pint of double cream use full fat as half fat didn’t work for me
The grated peel of half a lemon
Juice from half a lemon
2 table spoons of sweet white wine (don’t use red I tried that once, big mistake).
Make up 1 pint of custard the proper stuff as it needs to set.
1 small plain Madeira cake / sponge cake (just buy that to save time)
1 tablespoon of Brandy
1 tablespoon of sherry (for some reason it works better with both)
1 tin of peaches in own juice
Decorations for the top like chopped nuts, sliced almonds, 100s/1000s etc
1). Prepare the custard and leave it to cool and almost set
2) Put the strawberries and raspberries in a bowl with the caster sugar and mash with
a fork (don’t liquidise you want it to be mushy).
3) in another bowl mix up the icing sugar, double cream, lemon peel, lemon juice,
and sweet wine.
4) put the strawberry mixture in bottom of serving bowl
5) break the Maderia cake into chunks and put in the bowl.
6) sprinkle over thr brandy and sherry.
7) slice up the peaches and place in the bowl
8) add dollops of the custard which should be cool and almost set.
9) add the lemon cream mixture.
10) sprinkle over decorations.
I’m so wicked aren’t I. Lol 🤪
