There’s a member of my extended family who makes an awesome trifle.  It’s so delicious, but I can tell you: you wouldn’t want to come across an RBT after eating a mouthful.

Miss A had an accident yesterday (mouth versus brothers head) and is now declaring she cannot eat a thing.  So I decided the time was right to create a cheeky kids trifle.  It’s a bit “deconstructed”, a bit funky and quite a bit tasty.  I’ve done individuals, but you could easily do it in a large bowl!

This is by no means a healthy dessert, but I have made some adaptions to the idea of a trifle so as to make it healthier than the standard.  It’s still very yummy though!  I made my jelly trees using a $2 Christmas tree silicone chocolate mold I picked up at Big W.  You don’t have to do the trees, you could set the jelly on a tray and then cut up as you wish.

You can replace the yoghurt with custard or cream if you prefer.
