Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups fresh strawberries, sliced
  • 1 cup homemade strawberry jam
  • 3 cups heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 6 egg yolks
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 3 cups whole milk
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • Fresh strawberries, halved
  • Additional graham cracker crumbs
  • Cinnamon powder

Instructions

  1. Prepare the custard: In a mixing bowl, whisk the egg yolks with sugar until smooth and creamy. In a saucepan, heat the milk until hot but not boiling, then gradually whisk it into the egg mixture. Pour the mixture back into the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring continuously, until the custard thickens and coats the back of a spoon. Remove from heat, stir in the vanilla extract, and let cool to room temperature. Once cool, cover with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator.
  2. Whip the cream: In a large bowl, beat the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until it forms soft peaks. Be careful not to overbeat. Refrigerate until needed.
  3. Assemble the trifle: In a clear trifle bowl, create a layer of sliced strawberries. Over the strawberries, evenly spread the homemade strawberry jam.
  4. Add the first layer of whipped cream: Gently spread half of the whipped cream over the strawberry jam layer.
  5. Sprinkle the crumbs: Carefully distribute the graham cracker crumbs over the whipped cream layer.
  6. Layer the custard: Spoon the chilled custard over the crumbs, spreading evenly.
  7. Add the second layer of whipped cream: Spread the remaining whipped cream over the custard.
  8. Garnish: Arrange halved strawberries on top for decoration. Sprinkle with additional graham cracker crumbs and dust lightly with cinnamon powder for a hint of spice.
  9. Chill: Allow the trifle to set in the refrigerator for at least 2-3 hours before serving.
