Panettone trifle with muscat ricotta cream
Valeria Necchio serves up a stunning panettone trifle recipe, made with slices of this classic Italian sweet bread and lashes of ricotta cream laced with sweet Muscat wine. The perfect festive Italian dessert.
Ingredients
Panettone trifle
- 750g of panettone
- 2 eggs , yolks and whites separated
- 500g of ricotta
- 100g of icing sugar
- 200ml of Muscat, sweet
- flaked almonds , as needed
Method
1
Cut off the top and bottom part of the panettone and reserve for other dishes. Cut the remaining chunk into 5 circles. Set aside
2
In a large bowl, whisk the egg whites to stiff peaks. In a separate bowl, beat the yolks with the icing sugar until airy and pale yellow. Add the ricotta and a quarter of the muscat wine and keep whisking until fully incorporated. Finally, add the egg whites and gently fold through
3
Take a large glass or trifle bowl and cover the bottom with a couple of tablespoons of ricotta cream. Top it with a circle of panettone. Brush the panettone with some muscat wine – just enough to moisten it – then cover it with cream and top it all with a handful of flaked almonds. Carry on in layers, finishing off with the cream and flaked almonds
4
Alternatively, you can serve this trifle in individual portions by using small glass bowls and a biscuit cutter to cut out small circles of panettone from each slice
5
Chill the trifle for 2 hours before serving
