Ingredients

• 4 large Granny Smith apples
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 3 tablespoons Brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
• 2 cups Heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Toffee sauce
• 1 pound Sponge cake (store-bought or homemade)
• 3 tablespoons Honey
• 2 cups Custard (prepared or store-bought)
• 0.5 cup Crushed ginger snaps or biscotti (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Peel, core, and chop the Granny Smith apples into small cubes.

Step 2

In a large skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Cook for 8-10 minutes until the apples soften and caramelize slightly. Remove from heat and let cool completely.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract using a hand mixer until medium peaks form. Set aside.

Step 4

Cut the sponge cake into 1-inch cubes. Drizzle with honey to lightly coat the cubes.

Step 5

In a large trifle dish or individual serving glasses, begin layering: Start with a layer of honey-drizzled sponge cake, followed by a layer of cooked caramelized apples, then a layer of custard. Drizzle a generous amount of toffee sauce over the custard.

Step 6

Repeat the layering process until all ingredients are used up, finishing with a layer of whipped cream on top.

Step 7

Optionally, sprinkle crushed ginger snaps or biscotti over the final layer for added texture.

Step 8

Refrigerate the trifle for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.

Step 9

Serve chilled and enjoy your delicious Toffee Apple and Honey Trifle!
