Peach - Amaretto Trifle image

My favourite trifle - so pretty in a cut-crystal trifle bowl. If you've never had this lovely English dessert before, you're in for a treat. Great way to use up stale poundcake too.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my trifle didn't turn out as well as I hoped. The whipped cream was too stiff and the layers didn't come together properly.

This trifle is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would use less sugar next time.
