Cookies should just be turning a slight golden color around the edges.
- Making the trifle: - Take a tall glass (I only have maurgarita glasses). - Crumble one of the shortbread cookies into the bottom of the glass. - Pour sherry over the crumbled cookie until it absorbs all the alcohol. - Pour the custard over this. - Place another shortbread cookienover the top. - Pour the strawberry topping over this. - If desired, put whipped cream on top.
