Mulled Wine Trifle Recipe

Step-by-Step Instructions

• STEP 1.Arrange the sponge cake chunks at the bottom of a large trifle dish or individual glasses. Drizzle the mulled wine evenly over the sponge, allowing it to soak in for a few minutes.

• STEP 1.Layer the mixed berries on top of the sponge. The vibrant colors add a visual pop that’s perfect for the holiday table. For an extra flavor boost, marinate the berries in a tablespoon of mulled wine before layering.

• STEP 2.Pour the custard over the berries, spreading it evenly. Ensure it covers the fruit completely for a smooth, creamy layer. Tip: If using store-bought custard, whisk it lightly to make it extra smooth.

• STEP 3.Generously dollop whipped cream on top of the custard layer. Use a piping bag for a decorative finish. Sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon or orange zest over the whipped cream for a festive touch.

• STEP 4.Refrigerate the trifle for at least 2 hours to let the flavors meld together. Serve chilled with a spoon, ensuring you scoop all the layers for the perfect bite.
