Yet another Foodnetwork.com recipe. I have to admit, Food Network is one of my favorite tv channels. When I am bored and home alone with nothing to do, Food Network is my friend. Yesterday, I saw Tyler made this recipe on his show and it looks really yummy. I haven't tried it yet but I want to post this recipe here so that I don't lose it. I'm going to make this weekend for Izuan graduation party along with his Tiramisu cake. :)
Recipe: Berry Trifle
Things you need...
Berries:
1 pint blueberries
1 pint strawberries, hulled and cut into thick slices
2 pint raspberries
1 lemon, juiced
1/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
Lemon Cream:
1 quart whipping cream
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 (11-ounce) jar lemon curd
1 cup store bought pound cake, slices 1/2-inch thick
Place the berries into a large bowl and sprinkle with half of the lemon juice. Lightly toss.
Combine the berries, sugar, cornstarch and remaining lemon juice in a saucepan over medium-high heat.
Bring to a simmer and cook just until the berries begin to break down and give up their juices, about 3 minutes.
Take the berries off the heat and let cool; the mixture should thicken up as is cools.
In a clean bowl, whip the cream with the sugar and the vanilla to soft peaks.
Put the lemon curd into a second bowl and stir in a little of the whipped cream to loosen it.
Then fold in the rest of the cream.
To assemble the trifle, spoon a layer of the lemon cream into a large glass bowl.
Add a layer of pound cake, breaking the slices into pieces that fit.
Then soak the cake with a layer of berries and their juices.
Keep going to make a 2or 3 more layers, depending on the size of the bowl, finishing with a layer of lemon cream.
Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Enjoy....
