Now if you really want to impress your guests this Easter than this Baileys Easter Egg Trifle is definitely the thing that you need to create. You’ll need: An Easter egg / 50ml Baileys Original / Toppings/delicious treats ie: crumbled chocolate sponge, sticky toffee pudding, chocolate buttons, whipped cream, cherries, raspberries and meringue.
Method:
1. Carefully cut an Easter egg open widthways (using a knife dipped in boiling water will help melt the chocolate and make this easier)
a. Alternatively you can use a blow torch to melt the top of the egg so that it opens up
2. Layer inside the cake any delicious Easter treats you can find
3. Pour a measure of Baileys Original over the top, so that it soaks into the sponge
4. Serve with a spoon, and a paper straw
