Ingredients

  • 6 cups frozen strawberries sliced
  • 3 tbsp sugar
  • 3 tbsp water
  • 1 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1/4 cup lemon curd
  • 1/4 cup icing sugar
  • 6 COBS Bread Chocolate Chip Hot Cross Buns cut into 1/2-inch cubes
  • 2 cups fresh strawberries sliced
  • 1/2 cup Mini eggs coarsely chopped
  • 1/2 cup mini eggs whole

Instructions

  • In a saucepan, heat the strawberries, sugar and water over medium high heat. Reduce the heat to medium low and simmer for 10-15 minutes until strawberries are tender and the sugar dissolves completely. Set aside to cool completely.
  • In a large bowl, whip the cream to soft peaks.
  • In another bowl, whip the cream cheese, lemon curd, and icing sugar until combined.
  • Add a bit of the whipped cream to the cream cheese mixture to lighten it, then continue to mix in the remaining cream. Set aside.
  • You can serve this in 8 individual glasses or one large trifle dish. Layer 1/2 of the hot cross buns along the bottom of the glass(es). Then working around the edges, add a layer of sliced strawberries around the glass. Fill the interior of the sliced strawberry “ring” with half of the strawberry sauce. Add a 1/2 of the cheesecake filling and all of the chopped mini eggs. Repeat with another layer of hot cross buns, strawberries, strawberry sauce, cheesecake and garnish with the whole mini eggs. Indulge!
