4 single trifle sponge cakes
2 large chocolate macaroons, crumbled
4 tablespoons sweet sherry
12 mandarin oranges
2 egg yolks
2 tablespoons superfine sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 cup milk
1 cup mascarpone cheese
7 ounces semisweet chocolate
1 cup heavy cream

1
Break up the trifle sponges and place in a large glass serving bowl. Sprinkle the crumbled macaroons on top, then sprinkle the sherry.
2
Squeeze the juice from two mandarins and sprinkle it over the macaroons. Peel and segment 6 mandarins and arrange them in the dish.
3
In a large bowl, combine egg yolks, sugar, and cornstarch to make a paste. Bring the milk to just below boiling in a small pan. Remove and pour it into the egg yolk mixture.
4
Return the custard to a clean pan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly to avoid curdling.
5
When custard is thick, return it to the bowl, then stir in the mascarpone and melted chocolate until thoroughly combined. Spread the custard evenly over the trifle and chill for 1 hour.
6
Whip the cream until thick, then spread over the top of the trifle. Decorate with marbled chocolate shapes and remaining mandarin orange segments.
