Tonight we celebrate the arrival of St. Nicolaas in Holland! We eat chicken and french fries with the mini-monsters and we make a tangerine trifle for dessert. The triffle is a real children's treat and by adding speculaas and tangerines we give it a Sinterklaas twist. Afterwards it's time to put your shoe out of course, very exciting!
How to make a tangerine trifle
Stir the sugar into the custard.
Stir in 3 tablespoons of milk.
Stir together until smooth.
Bring the milk to the boil.
Stir in the custard mixture.
Keep stirring until the custard thickens.
Remove it from the heat when thickend.
Dust the custard with icing sugar to prevent a skin forming, allow to cool completely then place it in the fridge until after dinner.
Put the cream with 2 tablespoons of sugar in the mixer.
Beat the cream until stiff peaks form
Peel the tangerines, remove all the white skin.
Store the whipped cream and the tangerine parts also in the fridge.
How to assemble the trifle
Break speculaas in a glass jar.
Stir the custard firmly.
Spoon some on the biscuit.
Put tangerine parts on top.
End with whipped cream then repeat the process.
