Prepare this trifle in a pretty glass serving bowl to show off the beautiful layers of cake, fruit and cream.
1/2 cup sugar
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 cups milk
1/2 cup dry sherry or other dry-white-wine or white-grape juice
3 large eggs yolks, beaten
3 tablespoons butter or stick margarine
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 (3-ounce) packages lady fingers (24)
1/2 cup strawberry preserves
1 pint (2 cups) strawberries, sliced or 1 package (10 ounces) frozen, sliced strawberries, thawed and drained
1 cup whipping cream (heavy)
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons slivered almonds, toasted
1. Mix 1/2 cup sugar, the cornstarch and salt in 3-quart saucepan. Gradually stir in milk and sherry. Heat to boiling over medium heat, stirring constantly. Boil and stir 1 minute.
2. Gradually stir at least half of the hot mixture into egg yolks, then stir back into hot mixture in saucepan. Boil and stir 1 minute; remove from heat. Stir in butter and vanilla. Cover and refrigerate about 3 hours or until chilled.
3. Split ladyfingers horizontally in half. Spread cut sides with preserves. Layer one-fourth of the ladyfingers, cut sides up, half of the strawberries and half of the pudding in 2-quart serving bowl; repeat layers. Arrange remaining ladyfingers around edge of bowl in upright position with cut sides toward center. (It may be necessary to gently ease lady-fingers down into pudding about 1 inch so they remain upright.) Cover and refrigerate.
4. Beat whipping cream and 2 tablespoons sugar in chilled medium bowl with electric mixer on high speed until stiff. Spread over dessert. Sprinkle with almonds. Refrigerate until serving. Store covered in refrigerator.
*Spreads with at least 65% vegetable oil can be used.
