Looking for a trifle with a difference this Christmas? Look no further! 

Ingredients

3 cups frozen raspberries (360g), thawed

1/3 cup icing sugar mixture

400g jam sponge roll, cut into 2cm thick slices

2 tablespoons orange-flavoured liqueur

300ml tub thickened cream

½ cup Greek yoghurt

2 tablespoons lemon curd

125g punnet fresh raspberries

LEMON CUSTARD

3 egg yolks

1/3 cup caster sugar

2 tablespoons custard powder

2 cups milk

¼ cup lemon curd

2 teaspoons finely grated lemon rind

300ml tub thickened cream

Method

  1. To make custard, whisk yolks, sugar and custard powder in a large saucepan until combined. Gradually whisk in milk. 

  2. Place pan over a medium to high heat. Whisk until mixture boils and thickens. Remove. Whisk in curd and rind. Transfer to a heatproof bowl. Cover surface with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 1 hour, or until cold.

  3. Beat cream in a small bowl with an electric mixer until firm peaks form. Fold into custard until combined. 

  4. Using a fork, mash raspberries with sugar in a bowl. 

  5. Arrange roll slices over base and around the side, with the cut-side facing outwards, of a glass trifle dish (14-cup capacity). Brush with liqueur. Spoon over half the raspberry mixture, drizzling a little between the slices around the side. 

  6. Pour over custard. Spoon over remaining raspberry mixture. Refrigerate, covered, for 2 hours, or overnight.  

  7. Before serving, beat cream and yoghurt with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Spoon over top of trifle. Stir lemon curd in a bowl until smooth. Dollop over cream. Run a spatula though curd to create a swirled effect. Sprinkle with raspberries. 

     

    TIP! For an alcohol-free trifle, replace liqueur with orange juice. To thaw raspberries, place on a large plate. Stand at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or until soft.  Undecorated trifle can be made up to two days ahead.
