Gingered berry trifle

A rich dessert that requires no cooking. The piquant flavour of the ginger complements beautifully the freshness of the berries and cream.

What you need

250 g ready-made madeira cakes, sliced
75 ml whisky
6 tsp stem ginger syrup, drained from stem ginger
1 stem ginger, chopped
500 g frozen mixed berries, thawed and drained
450 ml double cream
25 g caster sugar
3 tsp whisky

Method

  1. Arrange the cake slices in the base of a glass trifle dish. Pour over the whisky and ginger syrup. Leave to soak for 10 min.

  2. Stir the chopped stem ginger in with the thawed and drained fruits, reserving a few for decoration. Then spoon over the cake base.

  3. In a clean bowl, lightly whip the cream with the sugar and whisky, until forming soft peaks.

  4. Spoon the cream mixture over the fruits. Decorate with the chopped ginger, sugar and a few reserved fruits. Serve well chilled.
