Jubilee Coffee Trifle

Jubilee Coffee Trifle

This impressive yet simple recipe keeps well in the fridge for up to 2-3 days (if you can resist it that long!).

Serves 4-6  

Ingredients:   For the trifle:

-  1 packet trifle sponges, cut in half lengthways

-  300ml strong Douwe Egberts Pure Gold coffee

-  800ml thick readymade custard

-  300ml double cream, whipped until just holds its shape   To decorate:

-  Flaked toasted almond

-  Sugared pink rose petals and violets

-  Dragees - silver or gold coloured edible balls  

Method:

- Line your serving dish/bowl with the trifle sponges and arrange around the inside of the dish.

- Pour in the coffee evenly over all the trifle sponges; push them in to shape around the dish with the back of a spoon.

- Pour over the readymade custard tapping the side of the dish to remove any air bubbles.

- Gently spoon on the cream to create a layer on top of the custard.

- Decorate with the flower petals, dragees and toasted flaked almonds.
