Servings: people
Instructions
Rum Spiked Lime Curd
  1. Wisk together egg yolks and set aside.
  2. In a medium saucepan, mix together sugar and cornstarch until completely combined. Slowly add water, mixing constantly to insure there are no lumps. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture comes to a boil. Remove from heat and slowly add 2 cups of the hot mixture to the beaten egg yolks, whisking constantly; you want to add this slowly, so as not to make scrambled eggs!
  3. Whisk tempered egg yolks back into saucepan. Return heat to medium-low. Stirring constantly, bring to a boil. Boil, stirring, for 1 minute. Remove from heat.
  4. Pour curd into a bowl. Stir in lime juice, butter, zest and rum. Place plastic wrap directly on top of curd and refrigerate until chilled. If you need to do this in a hurry; place bowl of curd in an ice bath and stir until cold.
White Rum Bars
  1. Preheat oven to 350º. Line a 13”x9”x1” pan with foil and coat with cooking oil spray; set aside.
  2. In a medium sized microwave safe bowl, add white chips and butter. Microwave 1 ½ minutes, remove and stir until chips have melted. Whisk in sugar, rum and zest. Then add eggs and whisk to combine.
  3. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda and salt. Add to egg mixture and stir just to combine. Pour into prepared baking pan. Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes; until golden brown and top feels firm to the touch.
  4. Let bars cool completely. Cut into 1 inch squares when ready to assemble trifle.
Whipped Cream
  1. Put mixing bowl in the freezer for 10 minutes; this will help your cream to whip faster.
  2. Remove mixing bowl from freezer. Add whipping cream and whip on high speed just until cream begins to thicken. Shut the mixer off; add sugar. Continue beating on high speed until cream will form a stiff mound, do not overbeat.
Macerated Strawberries
  1. Wash and dry strawberries. Remove stems and slice into ¼ inch thick slices, gently toss with rum.
Assembly
  1. Using a 10 inch round 6 inch deep glass bowl, first layer in ¼ rum bar cubes, ¼ of the custard, ¼ of the whipped cream, and ¼ of the sliced strawberries. Continue layering until all ingredients have been used. Cover and refrigerate until serving time.
