Using an electric mixer, beat butter in large bowl until fluffy. Beat in brown sugar. Beat in eggs, 1 at a time. Gradually beat in molasses, followed by 1 cup boiling water. Mix in grated lemon peel. Gradually mix in dry ingredients. Transfer batter to prepared pan. Bake until a tester inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, about 20 to 25 minutes.

Steps:
- Make gingerbread:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a buttered jelly-roll pan, 15 1/2 by 10 1/2 by 1 inch, with wax paper. Butter and flour paper, knocking out excess flour.
- In a bowl whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, and spices. In a large bowl with an electric mixer beat together butter, sugar, molasses, and oil until combined well. Beat in eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition, and add flour mixture, beating until batter is combined well.
- Spread batter evenly into prepared pan and bake in middle of oven 15 minutes, or until gingerbread springs back when pressed lightly. Invert gingerbread onto a rack and cool completely. Peel off wax paper. Gingerbread may be made 1 day ahead and kept wrapped in plastic wrap. Cut gingerbread into 1/2-inch cubes.
- Make blueberry sauce:
- In a small saucepan simmer sauce ingredients, stirring occasionally, 40 to 45 minutes, or until reduced to about 2 1/2 cups. Cool sauce completely and chill, covered. Blueberry sauce may be made 2 days ahead and chilled, covered.
- Make lemon mousse:
- In a heavy saucepan whisk together yolks and sugar. Add lemon juice and butter and cook over moderately low heat, whisking constantly, until butter is melted completely. Cook mixture, whisking constantly, until it just reaches the boiling point and is thickened (do not let mixture boil), 7 to 12 minutes more.
- Strain lemon mixture through a fine sieve into a bowl. Stir in zest and cool mixture completely, its surface covered with plastic wrap. Chill mixture until cold, about 2 hours.
- In a bowl with an electric mixer beat cream until it just holds stiff peaks. Whisk one-fourth whipped cream into lemon mixture to lighten it and fold in remaining cream gently but thoroughly. Chill mousse, covered, at least 3 hours or overnight. Mousse may be made 2 days ahead and chilled, covered.
- Arrange 1/2 cup gingerbread cubes in bottom of each of 8 glasses (about 1 1/2-cup capacities). Spoon 1/4 cup mousse over gingerbread in each glass and spoon 2 heaping tablespoons sauce over each layer of mousse. Repeat layering with all but about 1 cup gingerbread and remaining mousse and blueberry sauce. Alternatively, a large trifle can be made in a 3-quart bowl by layering ingredients in same order.
- Chill trifle, covered, at least 6 hours or overnight. Garnish trifle with zest.

Tips:
- Choose fresh, ripe blueberries: Using fresh blueberries will ensure the best flavor and texture in your trifle. If you can't find fresh blueberries, frozen blueberries will also work, but make sure to thaw them before using.
- Make sure the gingerbread is completely cool before assembling the trifle: If the gingerbread is still warm, it will make the trifle soggy. Let it cool completely on a wire rack before assembling the trifle.
- Don't overwhip the cream: Overwhipped cream will become grainy and lose its smooth texture. Whip the cream until it is just stiff enough to hold its shape.
- Assemble the trifle just before serving: This will prevent the trifle from becoming soggy. If you need to make the trifle ahead of time, you can assemble it up to 24 hours in advance, but keep it covered in the refrigerator until you're ready to serve.

This lemon blueberry and gingerbread trifle is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of sweet blueberries, tangy lemon, and spicy gingerbread is sure to please everyone.
