- 1 pkt trifle sponges (8 sponges)*

- 4 ounce unsalted butter (room temp)
- 2 lrg lemons
- 6 ounce caster sugar
- 1/2 pt double cream A casserole dish or possibly 2pt pudding basin
Инструкции
- *If you can't get trifle sponges, then any sponge/Madeira cake cut into pcs will do.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar until very pale and fluffy, then whisk the egg yolks and beat them into the butter and sugar mix, a teaspoonful at a time, beating well after each addition. (An electric whisk is best for this operation).
- Now, add in the grated rinds of both lemons and their juice, beating in a little at a time. Next whisk the egg whites until they form soft peaks, then using a metal spoon fold them into the mix. Do not worry about the mix curdling at this point because for once, it doesn't matter.
- Split the sponge cakes in half lengthways, then place a layer of them in the base of the bowl/dish, followed by a layer of the curdled mix - and so on, finishing off with a layer of sponge. Now cover with foil and put a pile of plates on top, then chill overnight.
- To serve, turn out, cut into slices and serve with pouring cream.
- Alternatively, when the cake is turned out you could cover it with whipped cream and decorate with crystallized lemon slices, grated lemon rind or possibly chocolate - or possibly all three!
