Servings 2 individual trifle bowls

Ingredients
  

  • 2 Diwali Muffins Can be substituted with any other neutral muffins
  • 4 Rasmalai pieces I used the Nanak Rasmalai pack from Costco
  • 8 tbsp Rasmalai milk

Instructions
 

  • Crush one Diwali Muffin and keep aside. To the individual trifle bowl, layer half of the crushed muffin.
  • Crush two Rasmalai pieces and layer on top of the muffin layer.
  • Top the Rasmalai pieces layer with the remaining half of the crushed muffin.
  • Finally, top off all the layers with 2-4 tablespoons of Rasmalai milk (the more the better).
  • Repeat the above steps for preparing another trifle bowl.
  • Refrigerate both the trifle bowls for an hour or more, and serve cold.

Notes

  • Muffins - If you don't have Diwali muffins prepared beforehand, just use any other neutral flavored muffins (non chocolate would be better). I would recommend simple vanilla muffins or some form of mixed nut muffins.
  • Rasmalai - I have used ready-made Nanak Rasmalai pack from Costco. But feel free to use either homemade or any other store bought Rasmalai pack.
  • Add-ons - You can also add some nuts and/or dried fruits in the trifle layers. Also, feel free to top the trifle off with some whipped cream or saffron strands.
  • Total time includes refrigeration time as well.
