Ingredients

• 240 ml Orange juice
• 100 g Sugar
• 2 tbsp Cornstarch
• 3 large Egg yolks
• 240 ml Heavy cream
• 1 tsp Vanilla extract
• 200 g Ladyfinger biscuits or sponge cake slices
• 2 large Oranges (peeled and thinly sliced)
• 1 tbsp Orange zest
• 2 tbsp Powdered sugar (for topping)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium saucepan, combine the orange juice, sugar, cornstarch, and egg yolks. Whisk the mixture until smooth.

Step 2

Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens into a custard-like consistency (about 5-7 minutes). Remove from heat and allow it to cool completely.

Step 3

Using an electric mixer, whip the heavy cream with the vanilla extract until soft peaks form.

Step 4

Fold the cooled orange custard into the whipped cream gently to create the creamy orange layer.

Step 5

In a trifle dish or individual serving glasses, add a layer of ladyfinger biscuits or sponge cake slices to the bottom.

Step 6

Spread a generous layer of the orange cream mixture on top of the cake layer.

Step 7

Arrange a layer of thinly sliced orange slices on top of the orange cream.

Step 8

Repeat the layers until the dish is filled, ending with a layer of the orange cream on top.

Step 9

Sprinkle the top with orange zest and a dusting of powdered sugar for garnish.

Step 10

Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld before serving.
