Sherry Trifle
3 egg yolks
1 pint double cream
1 oz sugar
1 level tsp cornflour
5 trifle sponge cakes
2 oz flaked almonds, lightly toasted
Raspberry jam, use a very good quality one
2 fl oz sherry or more
8 oz fresh or frozen raspberries
2 small bananas
Break the sponge cakes into medium size pieces and spread each
piece with jam. Place in a large glass bowl and sprinkle over the
raspberries. Add the sherry until the cakes are saturated.
Make the custard: Heat half the cream in a small saucepan. Blend
the egg yolks, sugar and cornflour together in a basin and when
the cream is hot pour over the mixture , stirring constantly. Return
to the pan and reheat gently until thick, then allow to cool.
Slice the bananas, mix in with the raspberries, and pour the custard
over. Whip up the remaining cream and spread over the custard.
Decorate with the flaked almonds. Cover and chill for 3 - 4 hours
before serving.

Where the jelly pack says make up with apint of water, DONT.
Use half water and half sweet sherry. Then make as normal, use fresh cream for the topping on top of the custard. With strawberries a winner. ps .Dont forget stawberries can go to mush when soaked> Hell, who cares........the trifle will taste fantastic.

You could always incorporate some chocolate, either with a chocolate custard instead of vanilla or with chocolate syrup. Try a hazelnut liqueur on the sponge cake. Good luck.

No, but what you should've asked is "What TIPPLE should I put in the trifle?" - which I suppose is the answer - put some alcohol in it!!!
