How to Make Cherry Trifle

  1. Line the bottom of a 3 1/2 quart trifle bowl with 1 (10-inch) store-bought or homemade sponge cake, cut to fit.
  2. Brush the cake layer lightly with 2 tablespoons of cherry liqueur (optional).
  3. Spread 1 cup (240ml) cherry pie filling evenly over the cake.
  4. Top with 1 cup (240ml) vanilla pudding.
  5. Repeat layers (cake, liqueur, pie filling, pudding) two more times.
  6. Chill the trifle in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours to allow flavors to meld and the dessert to set.
  7. Before serving, top with 2 cups (480ml) whipped cream and garnish with 1/4 cup (30g) slivered almonds (optional).
