Christmas Trifle in a Jar

Whilst researching “trifles”, I came across many different versions, some had jelly some didn’t, some had alcohol some didn’t, some had boudoir biscuits, some had cake, some had cream and others had custard…and some had it all!! I came to the conclusion that anything goes really! I wanted to make a trifle that was pretty and simple and of course delicious. So what we have below is all that J

Notes: I used a Consol jar for these trifles. The recipe below is for 4 trifles (4 jars)
