A delicious Trifle Recipe brought to you by Rey's Kitchen Delights

A trifle is a dessert made from thick custard, biscuits or sponge cake, cut up fruits and sometimes cream. The ingredients are usually layered. According to Wikipedia, the earliest known use of the name trifle was for a thick cream flavoured with sugar, ginger and rosewater, the recipe for which was published in England, 1596, in a book called "The good huswife's Jewell" by Thomas Dawson.Sixty years later eggs were added and the custard was poured over alcohol soaked bread. Naturally as I am a Muslim, following the Islamic faith, none of our cooking or baking would consume alcohol as it is strictly prohibited from a religious perspective.

                                1. Buy a packet of Boudoir biscuits also known as finger biscuits

                                2. Lay out the biscuits in a pyrex dish as depicted above

                                3. Buy a tin of canned peach slices.

                                4. Pour the syrup from the tin over the Boudoir biscuits. The syrup
                                    will soak into the biscuits thereby making it soft.                      

                                5. Take apricot jam and spread it over the soaked biscuits

                                 6. Add as much jam as you desire

                                7. Now sprinkle dessicated coconut over the jam                  
           

                                8. Now chop up the peach slices that were left behind in the tin

                                9. Now sprinkle ground almonds over the chopped up peach slices

                                10. In a saucepan add 1.2 litres of milk. Heat it on the stove.The
                                      milk is required to make a nice smooth custard.

                               11. In a dish add 5 tablespoons of custard powder

                                12. Add some water to the powder and mix into a smooth mixture
                                      Not too thin and not too thick

                                13. Now add the custard powder mixture to the milk and stir
                                      making sure that there are no lumps in the mixture.Allow the
                                      mixture to boil until it thickens                            
               

                                14. Now pour the thickened custard over the rest of the ingredients

                                15. Add a small tin of nestle cream over the cooled custard. Decorate
                                    with crushed flake chocolate and sliced peaches as illustrated above....
