Lemon Trifle Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Popular Recipes. (Lemon Trifle Recipe). I created this trifle when I had a ton of lemons left over from a party. I made my own lemon curd and then layered it with cream and ladyfingers soaked in homemade syrup - delicious. If you want to save time you can use store-bought lemon curd. You could also add a layer of fresh berries if you like.
