Рецепт Strawberry-Rhubarb Trifle
This Strawberry Rhubarb Trifle is a quick and easy dessert to put together for any of your spring gatherings and would be a perfect addition to your Easter table! Layers of Angel Food Cake with fresh strawberry slices, slightly sweet and tangy rhubarb sauce and homemade custard cream all topped with some whipped topping. Your friends and family will be asking for the recipe as soon as they take one bite!
This month the Virtual Supper Club is sharing with you recipes for April's fool. While this isn't a "real" fool (a fool traditionally combines custard and pureed fruit), its close enough as there is rhubarb sauce and custard, they are just layered, not combined!
As a young girl I loved rhubarb, but I hated Strawberry Rhubarb Pie. For me, it was too sweet. I liked the sourness of the rhubarb with a little bit of sweet. The first pie I ever made on my own was a Rhubarb Custard Pie and I will never forget how Nanny went on and on about what an amazing pie that was. I guess that was probably the best compliment a girl could get since I considered my Nanny to be the best baker ever!
The strawberries in this dessert are not sweetened and the sugar in the rhubarb is minimal and has some cranberry juice in it rather than the orange juice called for in the original recipe. The rhubarb sauce itself was so good that I stirred it in with some of my plain Greek Yogurt for breakfast! I may make some of that sauce just to have for my Greek yogurt and top with a little bit of granola for my morning meal!
The recipe (slightly adapted by me) comes from Cooking Light Magazine. The magazine that inspired this group's supper club years ago! Be sure to read what the rest of the Virtual Supper Club as their "April Fool" go share with you today!
