The only dessert i would bother eating myself which contains sponge is trifle. Preferably real sherry trifle, not those horrible packet things.





Put the sponge at the bottom of a large bowl and add a little sherry, enough to soak it, but so it's not sitting in a puddle and add a layer of (usually tinned, well-drained) fruit. For a non-alcoholic variant, you can make up a jelly mix and pour it over instead, in which case you have to put it in the fridge for a couple of hours until it's set. Then you just add a layer of egg custard (for preference) or custard thickened with cornstarch and colored with yellow coloring, and a thick layer of cream. Decorate with whatever comes to mind.





No holiday feast is complete without a bowl of trifle for those who don't like Christmas pud. It makes a great ';ooh i fancy some of that'; later on in the day, as well! (We have a big family with a crazy mixture of likes and dislikes, so we have a huge buffet laid out after the main meal for grazing - which means people tend to drift over and grab something to eat for most of the evening. Sure, everyone gets fatter than they ought. The upside is, nobody ever gets very drunk, even if they are drinking more than they should as well)What are xcellent dessert recipes with sponge cake in it?

DIRECTIONS


Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Sift together flour, salt and baking powder. Set aside.


In a large bowl, beat eggs for 4 minutes with electric mixer on high. Add sugar and continue beating until light and fluffy. Add flour mixture.


In a sauce pan, bring 1 cup milk and 2 tablespoons butter to a boil. Add to batter and beat until combined.


Pour batter into 9x13 inch pan. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean.


To make the frosting: In a saucepan, combine brown sugar, coconut, 6 tablespoons butter and 4 tablespoons milk. Heat and stir until butter is melted and mixture is smooth. Pour over cake as soon as it comes out of the oven. Put cake in the oven under the broiler and bake 3 to 4 minutes, or until icing is light brown.
