b. trifle

This recipe has been handed down from my Grandma to my Dad and now me.

I have made this since I was allowed to cook in the kitchen. It is easy and inexpensive. It is NOT clean eating recipe! It’s Christmas and you have to indulge at this time of year. Hope your Christmas Day is wonderful!
