Orange Raspberry Mascarpone Trifle اورنج رسبیری ٹراۂفل recipe by morEwish

 

Layers of citrusy orange curd, fresh raspberries, soaked ladyfingers and freshly whipped mascarpone cream come together to make a creamy, citrusy, show-stopping dessert!

I just love a trifle! They feed a crowd, are customizable, and make a lovely presentation. They can be made in a large bowl or in individual jars! While this gorgeous trifle have three main elements: the citrusy orange curd made with fresh orange juice, the homemade mascarpone whipped cream — and the raspberries and ladyfinger cookies. 

When I saw this recipe, instantly decided to give this a try with few of my own changes and I absolutely enjoyed this creamy, dreamy layered dessert - this coming from a person who is not that of a big fan of fruity desserts. 

Enjoy this trifle chilled, refrigerate this trifle at least 4 hours, but preferably overnight to let all the flavors and textures come together. Layers of this dessert will totally depend on the size and shape of your dish, you might have more or less layers.

This apparently is my last post of year 2020, cheers to a new year, health and happiness to you and yours in the new year ahead inshAllah! Till then you enjoy this bright and happy, delicious dessert!
