This is a true Italian-English hybrid: syllabub is a thoroughly English dish, though the liqueur makes it utterly Italian. Crushed Amaretti biscuits give it a trifle-like texture, reminiscent of soaked sponge cake and soft cream. It's delicious, and it takes literally minutes to prepare. You can serve this dessert not only for special occasions, but any time you want to finish a meal with aplomb.
