Ingredients

  • 9 large egg yolks 3/4 cup sugar 4 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons all-purpose flour 1/8 teaspoon salt 3 cups milk, warmed 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract 3 tablespoons brandy 1 cup heavy cream 14 ladyfingers, halved lengthwise 3/4 cup raspberry jam (9 ounces) 1 cup cream sherry 1 cup sliced almonds, toasted 16 amaretti (Italian almond cookies), broken (about 1 1/4 cups)

Directions

Put yolks and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment; beat on medium-high speed until mixture is pale and thick, 2 to 3 minutes. On low speed, beat in flour and salt. Gradually beat in half of warm milk.

Pour milk-yolk mixture into remaining milk in pan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, whisking. Cook, stirring, until thickened, about 2 minutes. Pour through a fine sieve into a bowl.

Transfer to an ice-water bath; let cool, stirring occasionally. Stir in vanilla and brandy. Place plastic wrap on surface. Refrigerate until ready to use, up to 3 days.

Beat cream just until stiff peaks form. Fold into pastry cream. Place 7 ladyfinger halves at bottom of a 12-cup trifle dish; spread with one quarter of jam. Pour in one quarter of sherry. Spoon one quarter pastry cream on top. Sprinkle with one-third each almonds and amaretti. Repeat layering 3 more times (last layer does not need almonds and amaretti). Refrigerate 3 hours or overnight.
