pandoro (Bundt cake!!), mascerpone, lemon curd....... and booze :-)
http://www.taste.com.au/recipes/4443/limoncello+trifle
Ingredients (serves 6)
* 1 cup (220g) caster sugar
* 100ml limoncello*
* 300g blueberries
* 1/2 tsp arrowroot
* 5 eggs, separated
* 250g mascarpone
* 1/3 cup (4 tbs) lemon curd
* 1/2 pandoro* or 1 Madeira cake, cut into 2cm-thick slices
* Whipped cream, to serve
* 1 tbs toasted flaked almonds, to serve
Method
1. Place 100g of the caster sugar in a saucepan with 300ml of water
and stir over low heat until sugar dissolves.
2. Increase the heat to medium and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove 1/3
cup (80ml) of the sugar syrup and place in a bowl with the limoncello,
stirring to combine. Set aside. Add the blueberries to the remaining
sugar syrup and cook for about 2 minutes over low heat or just until
they begin to release some of their juice.
3. Meanwhile, combine the arrowroot with 2 tablespoons of cold water
and stir until smooth. Add to the blueberries and cook, stirring, for a
further minute until thickened. Set aside and allow to cool.
4. Place egg yolks and remaining 120g caster sugar in the bowl of an
electric mixer and beat until pale and thick.
5. Beat in mascarpone and lemon curd.
6. In a separate bowl, beat the eggwhites until soft peaks form, then
gently fold them into the mascarpone and lemon curd mixture. Place a
layer of pandoro or madeira sponge cake slices in a 1.5-litre glass
serving dish, brush with some of the limoncello syrup, then spread with
one third of the mascarpone mixture. Drizzle with one third of the
blueberries and their syrup.
7. Repeat the layers, then top with a final layer of cake. Brush with
the syrup and top with the remaining mascarpone (reserving the remaining
berries for garnish). Cover and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.
8. Just before serving the trifl e, top with whipped cream, scatter
over the reserved blueberries and sprinkle with flaked almonds.
Notes & tips
* * Limoncello is available from selected bottleshops. Pandoro is a
yeast-based cake available from Italian grocers and gourmet food stores.
