Nothing like a chilling trifle on a hot hot day/night. Well there are all sorts of trifle recipes out there but one that I’m to post right now is my favorite one.It’s basically a never fail custard which can be made easily at home. And sure to please your guests.
It’s my favorite because, first – the custard used in this trifle is all home-made, second – the custard is whte in color. Otherwise even the vanilla flavored custard powder in the markets yields a yellow colored custard but his one is white, and I love it 🙂 and of course it tastes fabulous as well. No compromise on taste huh? not at all, never!
