Equipment

  • 1 mesh strainer
  • 1 large skillet
  • 1 electric mixer optional

Ingredients
  

  • 3 ripe peaches (sliced)

Rosemary Syrup

  • 3-4 sprigs rosemary
  • ½ cup granulated sugar

Angel Food Croutons

  • 9 oz. Angel Food cake (prepared)
  • 3 tablespoon salted butter

Whipped Cream

  • ½ cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

Prepare the Rosemary Syrup

  • Start by preparing the rosemary syrup. Add the rosemary, sugar, and ½ cup of water in a small saucepan.
  • Bring the sugar mixture to a boil and allow it to boil for two minutes.
  • Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow it to cool and steep for one hour.
  • Strain the syrup into a jar or bottle, seal, and store in the refrigerator

Prepare the Angel Food Croutons

  • Cut the Angel Food cake into 1-inch cubes. A serrated knife is the best tool for the job.
  • Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
  • Add the Angel Food cubes and toss to coat in the butter. Continue to cook until the croutons are golden on all sides.
  • Remove the croutons to a plate to cool.

Prepare the Whipped Cream

  • Combine the chilled cream, sugar, and vanilla in a medium bowl.
  • Whip by hand or with an electric mixer until soft peaks form.

Assemble the Trifle

  • Start with a layer of Angel Food croutons, then place peach slices over the top. Spoon a generous amount of rosemary syrup over the peaches. Top with a layer of whipped cream.
  • Repeat the layering once more. Finish with whipped cream and rosemary garnish, if desired.
  • Serve immediately with extra rosemary syrup.

Notes

You may have some rosemary syrup left over.  It is great for flavoring cocktails, lemonade, or fresh fruit!
