How to Make Gingerbread Lemon Curd Trifle W Blackberry Sauce

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground ginger, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground cloves, ½ teaspoon salt, and ½ cup crystallized ginger.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and ¾ cup packed brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 cup molasses.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with 1 cup boiling water, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  6. Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the gingerbread cool in the pan for 15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. Once cooled, cut the gingerbread into 1-inch cubes.
  9. For the blackberry sauce: Combine 2 cups blackberries, ½ cup sugar, and a pinch of salt in a saucepan. Cook over medium heat until the berries soften and the sugar dissolves (about 10 minutes).
  10. Transfer the mixture to a blender and puree until smooth. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl.
  11. Stir in 1 tablespoon framboise (raspberry liqueur) and 1 tablespoon lemon juice.
  12. For assembly: Layer gingerbread cubes, lemon curd (store-bought or homemade), and blackberry sauce in a trifle bowl, repeating layers until the bowl is full. Top with whipped cream.
  13. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
