Pav Trifle

Ingredients:

  • 4 eggs yolks
  • 60g white sugar
  • 200mls heavy cream
  • 100g mascarpone
  • 200g pavlova
  • 250g frozen berries thawed or fresh berries

Custard:

Place the egg yolks and sugar into a mixing bowl. Using an electric beater, whisk the yolks and sugar until the yolks triple in volume, about 5 minutes beating.

In a separate bowl, whip the cream until stiff then beat in the egg yolks and mascarpone. Continue to whisk with the beater on high until the cream thickens enough to hold its shape as the beater passes through it.

To assemble the trifle:

Crumble the pavlova and cover the base of a decorative serving bowl with half of it. Pour over half of the custard then sit half of the berries onto the custard

Repeat the process with the other half of the ingredients and chill until serving time.

This dish is best eaten on the day it is made to prevent the berries discolouring the cream.

Serves 6.
