Method :
Slice the
cake into pieces 2cm thick. Put the jam on them. Put them into the
bottom of a glass bowl. Empty the tin of raspberries if you have one on
the top. Pour the sherry over the top. Prepare the
Custard Sauce. Leave it for
5 minutes so that it is not too hot. Then spoon it into the top of the
sponge cake mixture. Cover the glass bowl with aluminum foil and leave
until the custard is completely cold and has set. In a large bowl whisk
the cream with a fork, whisk or electric mixer until it is very thick.
Put it on top of the custard. Make the top smooth with a knife. Decorate
the trifle with almonds and cherries.

The word
"trifle" means "something small and unimportant", but, as you can see
from this recipe, this pudding is neither small nor unimportant! It is a
rich and delicious pudding. People have eaten trifles in Britain since
the Middle Ages. Today trifle is often served at parties at Christmas
and New Year.
