When I think of Christmas, and Summer, I think of trifle. My grandparents used to make one with sherry and it was DIVINE. However, the sherry can be a little strong (especially for kids), so when I had the opportunity to make a trifle with orange juice instead; I was excited.
This recipe is actually really easy to put together. It took me about 30 minutes in total and I did it while I had the kids in my care. It’s not time sensitive, so doesn’t matter if you have to stop and check on your kids.
The kind folks over at Tatua sent me some amazing ingredients and a recipe, to try out; and I wasn’t disappointed. You can make this for Christmas Day or for ANY dessert as it’s truly amazing:
