Method

Hide images
step 1
Add the chocolate pieces (75 g) to a heatproof bowl and melt in the microwave for 90 seconds, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth (Alternatively you can melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pan of barely simmering water). Gradually stir in the custard (1 tub).
step 2
Mix the orange zest (2) with half of the mascarpone (125 g) and 1 tbsp icing sugar (1 tbsp). Fold the mascarpone mixture into the chocolate custard mixture.
step 3
Squeeze the orange juice over a sieve into a bowl, add the brandy (3 tbsp) and mix together. Add the orange segments (2) and leave to soak.
step 4
Divide the broken amaretti biscuits (1 pack) between 8 trifle dishes. Spoon over the boozy orange segments with some of the juice. Top each with a layer of the chocolate custard mixture and half of the grated chocolate (10 g). Cover with clingfilm and chill in the fridge for 1 hour.
step 5
Combine the double cream (300 ml) with the vanilla extract (1 tsp), the remaining mascarpone (125 g), 1 tbsp icing sugar (1 tbsp) and any leftover boozy orange juice and whisk with an electric whisk until soft peaks form. Spoon the cream over the top of each trifle, then scatter with the remaining grated M&S dark chocolate (10 g) and the flaked almonds (25 g).
step 5 Combine the double cream (300 ml) with the vanilla extract (1 tsp), the remaining mascarpone (125 g), 1 tbsp icing sugar (1 tbsp) and any leftover boozy orange juice and whisk with an electric whisk until soft peaks form. Spoon the cream over the top of each trifle, then scatter with the remaining grated M&S dark chocolate (10 g) and the flaked almonds (25 g).
