Trifle is an English dessert, and because we make it using up any leftover from Stollen Cake, they called it (Stollen). In our recipe we added a German touch with our "Lebkuchen German Gingerbread Mix" and we substitute the alcohol with apple juice. 

Ingredient

5 apples around 500 g around 17 oz 

½ vanilla pod 

1.78 oz (50 g) butter  

2.5 oz (70 g) brown sugar or ⅓ cup and 1 Tbsp.

1 tsp. Lebkuchen German Gingerbread Mix 

3 Tbsp. apple juice 

 

For the mascarpone creme: 

8.8 oz (250 g) mascarpone 

8.8 oz (250 g) low fat greek yoghurt 

3 Tbsp. brown sugar 

½ vanilla pod 

3 slices of Switz Fruit Slice Cake 70g 

 

To decorate: 

1 slice of Switz Fruit Slice Cake 70g cut into sticks

Instruction

1

Prepare 4 glasses around 200 ml each or 6 glasses around 125 ml. 

2

Peel the apples, core them and then cube them to around 3 cm cubes. Chop the vanilla pod in half and scrape out the pulp of the first half. 

3

Melt the butter in a saucepan. Then add the brown sugar, half the vanilla pulp, gingerbread spice, and heat on medium heat. Once the sugar starts to caramelize, add the apple cubes and apple juice.  

4

Cook for around 5 minutes. Once the apple chunks begin to soften, remove them with a slotted spoon and set aside. 

Cook the caramel sauce for a further 5 minutes until it has a thick, creamy consistency. Now return the apples to the pan and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Leave the caramelized apples to cool down. 

5

In the meantime, in a bowl mix the mascarpone, yoghurt, sugar and remaining pulp of the vanilla pod to a smooth creme. Set it aside. 

6

Slice the Switz cake slices into little cubes. Ensure that the caramel apples have cooled. Then cover the bottom of each glass with the cake cubes. Layer 2 teaspoon of caramel apples on top. Now add 2 or 3 tablespoons of mascarpone and finish off with a layer of caramelized apple. 

7

To decorate stick one of the Switz cake sticks into the crème, like a wafer. Refrigerate until serving. Enjoy! ❤️
