I'm cooking this todayRecipe's preparation
In the base of a glass serving dish place a layer of chocolate cake.
Drain the cherries - keep the juice.
Place the cherries on top of the chocolate cake
Make up the jelly mix using 250g of hot water and 200 g of the juice from the cherries.
Pour the jelly mix over the cake and cherries.
Set aside in the fridge until the jelly sets.
Make the chocolate custard in accordance with the instructions in the Everyday Cookbook.
Allow to cool.
A skin will form on the custard as it cools - mix for 5-10 seconds at speed 4 to ensure the custard has a smooth consistency before layering on top of the cake and jelly mix.
Whip the cream in the TM using the butterfly attachment.
Speed 4 for approx 30 seconds (see p11 of the Everday cooking for every family)
Layer the whipped cream on top of the custard in the trifle bowl.
Top with chocolate sprinkles or shaved chocolate -
you could also use some fresh cherries!

Tip
This trifle can be made a day ahead of serving. If using fresh cherries to top it off I would put these on just before serving so that juice does not leach into the cream.

Comments
I doubled the jelly and it just covered the sponge and cherries. I also doubled the custard. Waiting to do cream but so far it looks good. And is super easy to make
This was a hit at my Daughters birthday party. I have made it twice now and it never lasts very long. Earned a few brownie points with the mother in law with this one. lol
YUM YUM so nice have made this a few times now and everyone loves it. Thanks for a great recipe
This is to die for! I have been trying to find this all night.
This trifle was fantastic, I would double the jelly quantity next time though as there wasn't enough to cover my sponge
