sherry custard in crepes with fresh berries Who doesn't love the traditional English trifle recipe?

It's certainly scrumptious but with all the pound cake and jam, it's not only labor intensive but quite calorie-laden.

In this quick and easy dessert recipe, we've slimmed down the original, but we promise, we didn't "trifle" with the flavor at all!







Ingredients:

  • 1 pint of whole milk
  • 1 egg
  • 3 egg yolks
  • ½ cup of sugar
  • 1 tbsp of cornstarch
  • 1 tsp of rum
  • ½ cup of cream sherry
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 pint of fresh raspberries
  • 1 pint of fresh blackberries
  • 1 cup of of crumbled vanilla wafers, whipped cream and additional berries, optional for garnish
  • 8 dessert crepes

  • Mix milk, sugar, cornstarch and salt together. Place in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir constantly until slightly thickened.

    Whisk together egg yolks and egg together in a small bowl. Add 1 cup of hot milk mixture to eggs, stir and add back to the rest of the milk mixture in the saucepan.

    Continue cooking while stirring constantly, but take care that the mixture does not boil and remains at a steady simmer until it reaches the consistency of custard. Remove from heat and stir in rum and cream sherry. Let mixture cool for about 30 minutes in the refrigerator. Remove and stir in fruit.

    Assemble crepes: Lay first crepe across serving platter. Spoon ½ cup of custard-berry mixture across the center of crepe. Roll up. Garnish with whipped cream, berries and crumbled wafers. Repeat with remaining crepes.

    Yield: 8 servings (1 crepe each)
