How to Make Devonshire Cream Trifle Or Parfait
- **Make the Devonshire Cream:**
- In a small saucepan, sprinkle 1 packet (2 teaspoons) of unflavored gelatin over 1/2 cup cold water. Let stand for 5 minutes to bloom.
- Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the gelatin is completely dissolved. Remove from heat and let cool.
- In a chilled medium bowl, beat 1 cup heavy whipping cream, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract with an electric mixer on medium-low speed until soft peaks form. Do not overbeat.
- In a separate bowl, gently combine the cooled gelatin mixture with 1/2 cup sour cream. Mix well.
- Gently fold the sour cream mixture into the whipped cream until just combined.
- Chill for 30-45 minutes, or until the mixture is thickened and holds its shape.
- **Prepare the Fruit Filling:**
- In a large bowl, combine 3 cups of your favorite fresh fruit (berries, peaches, etc.), and 2 tablespoons granulated sugar. Let stand for 10 minutes to allow the juices to release.
- If using peaches or nectarines, gently toss the slices in a mixture of 1 cup water and 1 tablespoon lemon juice to prevent discoloration.
- **Assemble the Trifle:**
- Cut a hot milk sponge cake or pound cake (see recipe #384648) into 2 x 1/2 inch strips.
- In a 2 1/2 to 3-quart clear glass serving bowl, a soufflé dish, or individual parfait glasses, layer half of the cake strips on the bottom.
- Top with half of the fruit filling.
- Drizzle with 2 tablespoons brandy, liqueur, or fruit juice.
- Spoon half of the Devonshire cream over the fruit.
- Repeat layers with remaining cake, fruit, and Devonshire cream.
- Pipe or dollop the remaining Devonshire cream on top.
- Cover and chill for at least 2 hours, or up to 24 hours, to allow the flavors to meld.
