I saw this one, drooled, and said that we would make it sometime soon.

It has been decided that Trifle is *not* just for the Christmas period!!


Raspberry and Chocolate Mousse Trifle

1 quantity Valentine's chocolate mousse recipe

1 packet raspberry jelly, made and set as per instructions on the box

1 Chocolate sponge or chocolate sponge roll

60ml alcohol of choice (Grand Marnier works well)

300ml + whipped cream

1 punnet of raspberries

Method

Cut the sponge into slices (1 1/2 cm thickness). Arrange slices on the
bottom and around the sides of a bowl. Sprinkle with alcohol. Spoon some
of the chocolate mousse into the bowl. Top with roughly cubed raspberry
jelly, fresh raspberries and more chocolate sponge. Continue layering
mousse, raspberry jelly and fresh raspberries. Top with a layer of cream
and arrange raspberries and extra chopped chocolate. Refrigerate to set.

Quite rich - be warned!

Jelly, reconstituted from a packet?
All those lovely ingredients, and it has to get spoiled by trashy
packet jelly.

"It was the inclusion of packet jelly in the early part of this
century that turned our graceful if somewhat tipsy angel into a good-
time girl, and by the mid-20th century the dessert had been so
downgraded as to be almost nasty."
