- Tip 2: While it's not recommended to freeze this dessert due to the cream, you can prepare the individual components ahead of time and assemble them just before serving.
- Tip 3: Serve with a strong coffee or herbal tea to balance the richness of the dessert.
- Tip 4: Feel free to experiment with different flavors by adding a layer of fruit preserves or switching out the cookies for a different flavor.
- Tip 5: These trifles can be made the day before serving, allowing the flavors to deepen as they chill.
