English Trifle II

__NOTOC__
== Ingredients ==
* 1 sponge cake (you can buy ready- made, use leftover or bake your own.)
* 1 tin apricots
* ½ cup sweet marsala, (or any sweet liquor like cherry whishniak)
* 1 cup crumbled ladyfingers (or macaroons)
* 2 tablespoon corn flour
* 2 tablespoons sugar
* 1 cup hot milk
* 3 eggs
* 2 cups whipping cream
* ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
* sugar
* fresh or crystallized fruits or both, such as bananas, mangos, strawberries and crystallized cherries
== Directions ==
# Drain syrup from apricots; puree apricots in food processor.
# Cut sponge cake in half.
# Spread on top of one layer - half of the apricot puree.
# Cover with second layer.
# Cut the cake in 2 inch by 1 inch pieces and arrange them in the bottom of large glass serving bowl.
# Pour liquor over cake and spread the rest of apricot puree on top.
=== Custard ===
# Mix Sugar and corn flour in a glass bowl with a little milk till very smooth; add the rest of the milk.
# Cover and microwave for 3-4 minutes or until it nearly thickens.
# Every few seconds, mix with a hand whisker.
# Add 1 egg at a time and beat well with the whisker.
# If you have a double saucepan (and you have the time), continue to stir continuously over boiling water for 10 minutes or, just be careful, and continue to microwave for another 1 -2 minutes, but you will have to beat with the whisker every 2 seconds so it will not get to be an omelet.
# Add vanilla extract and ladyfingers or macaroons.
# Leave to soak until soft. Beat well to dissolve.
# Cool custard. Pour half over apricot puree; arrange fruits on top.
# Cover with the second half. Cool for 2 hours.
# Just before serving, whip cream with some sugar.
# And add if you like a few drops of vanilla extract.
# Cover custard with the whipped cream and again decorate with fresh or crystallized cherries.
