Cherrapino got me all excited about making a black forest trifle. I picked up some beautiful cherries from smit orchards at the farmers market. With all the cakes I've been making, I've always got plenty of cake scraps, so I layered some chocolate fudge cake, drizzled with kirsch, added a layer of chocolate custard, cherry and whipped cream with a little shaved chocolate. Yum!!Chocolate Custard Dairy Book of Home Cookery
Enough for 4 small trifles
150ml milk
1/2 tsp vanilla essence
2 egg yolks
15g sugar
30g dark chocolate, melted
Whisk together milk, vanilla and eggs. Warm on a low heat until the custard coats the back of a spoon. Add melted chocolate and stir together. Cool before adding to the trifle.
I also made a trifle in a jar for my friend as a surprise!

Just found your blog and I must say that your treats look super scrumptious! And I'm really jealous of the food challenges and blogger meet-and-greets in your area. I SO wish I could get something like that going my little acre of the forest!

These look yummy! I won't be taking any more culinary classes.. :( I need to work on my general classes and I'm taking web design Fall semester.
That chocolate custard looks dreamy! I adore that Dairy Cookery book, so many good, easy recipes in there.
You've got me wanting cherries now...LOL!
