Strawberry Trifle Recipe
Gorgeous to look at and ridiculously delicious!
I love making trifles because they are so easy to put together and don't stress me out when I'm entertaining and have lots of other dishes to prepare.
This is not a traditional English trifle because the only fruit is strawberries, there's a biscuity crunch, delicate shreds of white chocolate and a hint of almond essence.
Instead of custard, this trifle has clouds of whipped cream. Please whip cold, heavy cream to stiff peaks instead of using cream out of a can or tub.
Make this trifle, especially when strawberries are in season. You won't be sorry!
