Easy Jelly Roll Trifle Recipes

Steps:

• Slice the jelly rolls into 1-inch pieces. Line a glass trifle bowl with the sliced jelly rolls. Drizzle 1/2 cup of sherry over the jelly roll slices. Toss the raspberries with 1 tablespoon of sugar or to taste and spoon over the jelly roll slices.
• In a bowl, whisk together the egg, egg yolks, and 1/2 cup of sugar until smooth; whisk in the flour until thoroughly combined and free of lumps. Pour milk and half-and-half into a saucepan; heat over medium heat until the milk mixture is steaming hot but not simmering. Whisk about 1/4 cup of the hot milk mixture into the egg mixture until smooth; repeat, whisking the hot milk in thoroughly each time, until you have whisked in about 3/4 cup of the hot milk mixture. Whisk the milk-egg mixture back into the steaming milk in the saucepan. Reduce heat to low. Whisking constantly, heat the sauce until it is thickened and just at the point of simmering (do not boil sauce), 3 to 4 minutes. Whisk in vanilla extract, 2 tablespoons of sherry, and butter. Allow the sauce to cool for about 10 minutes, whisking often to avoid lumps.
• Pour the custard over the raspberries in the trifle bowl, cover bowl with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled and set, at least 2 hours. Garnish with dollops of whipped cream, more raspberries, and chocolate shavings if desired.

Steps:

• In a large glass bowl, combine the gelatin and 2 cups boiling water. Mix until dissolved.
• Mix together the wine, reserved fruit cocktail syrup and enough cold water to equal 1 3/4 cups. Add to gelatin and mix well.
• Add cubed cake and fruit to mixture; stir and refrigerate 4 to 5 hours.
• Prepare custard according to packaging to equal 2 cups. Pour over gelatin mixture and refrigerate. Top with whipped topping before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a 10x15 inch jellyroll pan with parchment paper.
• Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside. In a large bowl, beat eggs and sugar with an electric mixer until thick and pale, about 5 minutes. Stir in the vanilla and milk. Stir in the dry ingredients gradually. The batter will be thin. Pour into the prepared pan.
• Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, until the center springs back when pressed lightly. Don't over bake, or it may crack.
• Generously dust a clean dish towel with confectioners' sugar. Turn the cake out onto the towel, and peel off the parchment paper. Gently roll up the cake using the towel, and let cool for about 10 minutes.
• Unroll the cake, and spread an even coating of jam onto the top. Roll the cake back up into a tight spiral, and remove the towel. Dust with confectioners' sugar before serving.

Steps:

• Make custard: stir powder and sugar in a heavy-bottomed saucepan until blended.
• Gradually whisk in milk, sherry and rum. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until mixture comes to a boil.
• Stir constantly until custard thickly coats a spoon, about 2 minutes.
• Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract.
• Press piece of plastic wrap on surface to prevent a skin from forming and chill until cooled.
• Cut jelly roll into 1/2 inch thick slices.
• Place over sides and bottom of a slightly rounded glass bowl that will hold 3 L.
• Cover cake with half of custard then layer of whipped cream.
• Add some raspberries, then another layer of cake; cover with remaining custard.
• Refrigerate, covered, for at least 6 hours or overnight.
• Before serving, spoon whipped cream over trifle and drizzle with raspberry sauce.
• Decorate with raspberries.

Steps:

• Cut small jelly rolls into 1/2" slices. Or use a full-size jelly roll and freeze any leftover cake for another time.
• Thaw the Cool Whip topping. Divide it into one cup and two cup portions.
• Save a few strawberries for garnish. Slice the rest of the strawberries, lightly sugar them and set aside.
• Arrange jelly roll slices on the sides and bottom of a clear 2-1/2 quart glass bowl or trifle dish or use a 9 x 13 glass dish.
• For presentation, arrange some strawberry slices around the bottom edge of the bowl before adding the jelly roll slices (optional).
• Prepare instant vanilla pudding according to box directions using 1-1/2 cups milk. Let stand for 5 minutes to thicken. Fold in the 1 cup of whipped topping.
• Arrange 1/2 of the strawberries on jelly roll slices; top with pudding, then remaining strawberries and 2 cups of whipped topping.
• Cover and chill for 8 hours; garnish with whole strawberries with stems or strawberry halves.
