Trifles, parfait, curds
Curds, sauces, trifles...
This section is dedicated to anything not baked. Sauces, trifles, parfaits, curds... Some are desserts in itself. Others you'll need to add to some of the recipes in other sections.
Lemon curd for instance is used in my Lemon Curd Cupcakes or can be spread on my English Muffins.
Caramel Sauce can be used in Millionaires or in my Banana Caramel Muffins.
Butterscotch, well, be creative but please, don't eat the whole jar in one go! I use it with beignets.
Trifles and other small jar desserts can be made for one or more, for small mason jars or bigger ones. For these, use any kind of cute container you can lay your hands on. I like to use glasses or tiny mason jars.

Butterscotch, biscoff and applesauce trifle
Par Laurie le 17 juillet 2016, 15:37
What can I say? I had just made butterscotch and was finding new way to use it. And I love biscoff. So good to dunk in coffee. Well, it's also great to give a different taste to the whipped cream traditionally used in trifles.

Easy-Peasy Trifle

This is something you can make ahead or on the spur of the moment. Trifle is made of crumbed cookies or cake, whipped cream or custard and fresh fruit. Use whatever you have in the kitchen and seasonal fruit or canned or even frozen ones.
My favorite one is made with poppy and sesame seed cookies, whipped cream and fresh blueberries.

Lemon Curd

I know I can find this in the supemarket anytime but what's the fun of it? Better make it at home and eat it fresh. Make only what you need or keep it in the fridge.
I used Sally's Baking Addiction's recipe. Awesome as always.
I use Curd in many different ways. On English muffins or toasts, in cupcakes for filling and frosting. On lemon squares... Use your imagination and tell me how you use it.
Butterscotch

I first made this recipe to use as a sauce for New Orleans beignets (see the recipe in the bread section). I only made one fourth of the recipe but you can make more and store it one month in the fridge. Though, if you ask me, it's so easy to make, only make what you need so you can have it really fresh.
