THE ULTIMATE EASTER TRIFLE TREAT!
If you’re looking for a showstopping Easter dessert that’s easy, creamy and packed with chocolatey goodness – this is IT! My Easter Strawberry and Chocolate Trifle is loaded with custard, whipped cream, strawberries and those delicious choc-chip hot cross buns. It’s the perfect way to use up leftover buns – and let’s be honest, any excuse to throw in some Easter eggs and bunnies is a WIN, right?!

Ingredients
  

  • 6 chocolate chip hot cross buns
  • 1 litre custard
  • 200 g dark chocolate
  • 500 g strawberries halved
  • 600 ml thickened cream
  • A splash of vanilla paste
  • 1 cup Berry liquor or cranberry juice.
  • Easter eggs and bunnies to decorate

Method
 

  1. Break up the chocolate and melt it in the microwave for 1½ minutes.
  2. Once melted, stir in a few tablespoons of custard and whisk until smooth.
  3. Add the rest of the custard and whisk again until it’s all combined into chocolatey goodness.
  4. Whip your cream with a splash of vanilla until soft peaks form.
  5. Roughly chop your hot cross buns into big chunks – messy is best here!
Now time to layer:
  1. Start with half the buns in the bottom of your trifle dish and pour over 1/2 cups of liqueur/juice.
  2. Scatter over half the strawberries.
  3. Pour over half the chocolate custard.
  4. Then dollop on half the whipped cream.
  5. Repeat the layers again – buns, berries, custard, cream.
  6. Finish with a mountain of Easter eggs and chocolate bunnies on top!
