Part trifle, part tiramisu… this midweek treat ticks all the right boxes

A hybrid of trifle and tiramisu, this is one for lovers of creamy puddings. Give the sponge fingers a good hour to soak up the coffee scented liquor. Longer if you have it.

Put 100g of sponge fingers in a deep serving dish. Make 150ml of espresso and stir 150ml of Irish cream liqueur into it. Pour the coffee-scented liquid over the sponge fingers and leave them to soak. Press them down occasionally so they become thoroughly saturated.
