Ingredients

  • 4 tablespoons vanilla custard powder

  • 4 cups milk

  • 2 tablespoons white sugar

  • 1 fresh pineapple, cut into 1/2-inch pieces

  • water to cover

  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar

  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • 2 (12 ounce) loaves prepared pound cake, crusts trimmed and cut into 1/2-inch squares

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream, whipped

Directions

  1. Mix custard powder with a few tablespoons cold milk in a bowl.

  2. Pour remaining milk into a saucepan, stir in sugar, and bring to a boil over medium heat, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.

  3. Add custard mixture to hot milk, stirring continuously until liquid has thickened. Set aside to cool completely.

  4. Place pineapple in a large heavy pan, cover with water, and bring to a boil over medium heat. Remove from heat and allow to cool, about 30 minutes. Strain the juice and set aside. Place pineapple pieces in a bowl.

  5. Mix brown sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl. Sprinkle over pineapple pieces and toss to coat.

  6. Layer 1/2 the pound cake in a trifle bowl. Sprinkle with 1 to 2 tablespoons of the reserved pineapple juice. Spread 1/2 the pineapple pieces over the cake. Spoon 1/2 the cooled custard over pineapple. Repeat layers. Spread whipped cream on top and smooth out evenly. Cover and chill in the refrigerator at least 1 hour.
