Method
step 1
Neatly line a trifle bowl with the swiss roll slices, then use the rest to fill the middle of the bowl. Sprinkle over 3 tbsp of amaretto.
step 2
Warm 500ml of the custard over a low heat, then stir in all of the chocolate until melted. Leave to cool, then spread over the cake layer. Chill for at least 1 hr until set.
step 3
Whip half the cream to stiff peaks using an electric whisk. Combine the pistachio crème with the remaining custard, then gently fold this into the whipped cream. Dollop over the custard, then spread out to cover. Chill for another hour.
step 4
When ready to serve, softly whip the remaining cream with the rest of the amaretto, then dollop this over the pistachio layer. Decorate with the pistachios and chocolate shavings.
