Instructions

Step 1: Poach the Peaches

In a medium pot, combine the Amaretto and water. Add the halved peaches.
Cover with a lid and simmer over medium heat for 8-10 minutes, or until the peaches soften but still hold their shape (this can vary depending on how ripe your peaches are)
Allow the peaches to cool in the syrup. Slice the peaches and toss them in the syrup to coat evenly.

Step 2: Make the Mascarpone Cream

Whip the heavy cream until it forms stiff peaks.
In a separate bowl, lightly beat the mascarpone cheese to loosen its texture.
Fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone. Add the icing sugar and Amaretto liqueur, mixing gently until smooth and fluffy.

Step 3: Assemble the Trifles in a glass as follows:

A generous spoonful of the mascarpone cream
A layer of crumbled Amaretti biscuits
Sliced peaches with a drizzle of the syrup
Repeat the layers, finishing with a layer of mascarpone cream on top.
Drizzle any remaining syrup over the top layer and garnish with toasted almond slices if desired.

Step 4: Chill and Serve

Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.

Notes

Store any leftover trifles in the refrigerator, covered with plastic wrap or in airtight containers, for up to 2 days.
Note that the biscuits will soften over time, so it’s best to assemble just before serving if you prefer a crunchier texture.
