1 cup your favorite sweetened fresh fruit such as strawberries or kiwi (1 to 2 cups)
10 3/4 ounces pound cake
Your favorite fruit jam such as strawberry.

CUSTARD RECIPE
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
3 California Fresh Egg Yolks
2 1/2 cups milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Servings: 8
1. Cut the pound cake into 1/4" thick slices and allow to dry for several hours. Prepare custard below. (See custard recipe below). Spread thin layer of jam on half of the pound cake slices and top with the remaining slices. Cut into one-inch cubes and scatter into the trifle bowl. Arrange slices of fruit with cake cubes. Pour the custard mixture over the cake. Garnish with whipped cream and/or fruit slices. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve.

2. Custard: In a saucepan, whisk together the granulated sugar, cornstarch and egg yolks. Whisk in milk in a continuous stream. Stir constantly over medium heat until thickened to a custard consistency. Whisk in the vanilla after removing from heat. Allow to cool completely.

Notes: Option: You may sprinkle the cake slices with rum for additional flavor.
