It's a Trifle!
Hello,
That wonderful season of Christmas is upon us once again. Doesn't it seem like we just put away the dishes from Thanksgiving? Maybe you are already busy with the preparations... pulling out old family recipes, getting the decorations out and baking cookies, so I won't keep you. I just wanted to be among the first to wish you and your family the happiest of holidays.
I would like to share with you a recipe for a tradtional holiday English Trifle. Born and raised in England, my mother followed tradition and made a HUGE crystal bowl of English Trifle for our family every Christmas. It was the highlight of our Christmas dinner. Now Mom made homemade custard and homemade cake for her trifle, but I have "Americanized" or "modernized" it for today's busy lifestyle. It is still delicious! Enjoy!
English Trifle (American Version)
1 white or yellow cake mix, prepared as directed on the box
2 large boxes vanilla pudding, prepared as directed on the box
1 or 2 cans of cherry pie filling
1 Container Cool Whip
1 jar Maraschino Cherries
Line a large decorative bowl with cake slices. Put a layer of cherry pie filling over the cake. Add a layer of pudding. Keep alternating layers until the bowl is about an inch from the top (or until you run out!) Cover with a layer of Cool Whip and arrange the maraschino cherries on top. Chill and serve. Yummy!
