English Trifle

 I made this for Jason when he was going to talk to the YM about his mission to Scotland.  I have never tasted real English Trifle, so I have no idea how it compares.  LOL!  It tasted good to me.  It is definitely not as sweet as American desserts, but I am assuming that would typically be true.

It is a lot of work....you have to make a merigue (to make the spongecake), a spongecake, custard and whipped cream.  So it is like making 4 desserts to make 1 dessert.  It took me a little over to 2 hours to make everything and then it needs to chill in the fridge for 2 hours.

Here is the spongecake recipe
