A trifle at Christmas is a necessity. It is the one dessert that looks perfect and pretty in a bowl but when you serve it looks like a great big mess (but we all still devour it).
This is my super easy recipe for Festive Trifle. It was feature in my e-recipe book Entertain with Cooking For Busy Mums and D’Orsogna. You can download a copy here: [sdm_download id=”6151″ fancy=”0″]

LETS PUT IT ALL TOGETHER
- Prepare the jelly the night before. 400ml boiling water per packet of jelly. Set in a large rectangle container and cut into cubes when set.

- Assemble by layering jam rolls, jelly, strawberries, custard and cream. Repeat until all ingredients are used and finish with cream, almonds and coconut.
Hello – which custard do you buy please ? Thank you
I normally buy the long life 1 litre pouch as I normally have minimal fridge space leading up to Christmas.
