Summer is here and I’m excited to be bringing you a delicious dessert dip that is tailor-made for dipping Walkers Shortbread. Walkers has been perfecting their shortbread since 1898 and are made in the Highlands of Scotland, so it’s only fitting that the dip is Scottish-themed too.

What I’m loving right now are Walkers Assorted Cookie Snack Packs. They are individually wrapped and come in shortbread fingers, rounds and chocolate chip. This makes them perfect for packing into a picnic basket or taking on all those summer road trips we love. I also made the dip portable in sealable jars so everything travels well together.

 

Scottish trifle (aka Tipsy Laird) is usually served on special occasions and holidays and in my eyes, summer is definitely special enough to serve this trifle dip.

There are 3 steps when it comes to making the layers of this dip. The first step is making the raspberry sauce. Add fresh raspberries to a bowl with sugar and mash slightly to make them into a chunky sauce. This gets refrigerated until need. Next, heat whole milk with sugar and bring to a simmer. Eggs are whisked with corn starch and vanilla extract. Add the egg mix to the hot milk and whisked until thickened. Refrigerate to cool. The last step is whipping heavy cream with powdered sugar until stiff. Then it’s time to build the layers of the trifle starting with custard, raspberry sauce, cream, then repeat.

How long will this keep? This dip will keep for up to 5 days sealed and refrigerated so it’s a great make ahead dessert.

    I love all the layers of this, and as a Scot I would say Scottish raspberries are so good. Not sure I’ve seen this dessert but it looks tasty.
