Recipe
Today, Cook It is on a mission to encourage you to make a delicious strawberry and banana trifle, while berries are in season. You can have the treat in any weather and at any event. For extra convenience, you can lay the ingredients in small dessert bowls, instead of a large mold.
It may seem that trifle is a modern dish. In reality, the first trifle was prepared at the end of the 16th century in England. Moreover, since then, the recipe has not changed at all. It still calls for biscuit dough and cream — the same as many years ago. Therefore, we say with confidence that this recipe is a proven favorite.

Meanwhile, make the icing. Melt chocolate with the remaining cream over a pan of simmering water. Let cool slightly and cream the trifle. Refrigerate overnight. |
Swap strawberries and bananas for any other fruit and berries, for example, peaches, apricots, kiwi, currants, or raspberries. By the way, if you want to enhance the taste, soak the sponge with sherry or wine.
