Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 packet (4-serving size) Low-fat chocolate pudding mix (sugar-free)
- 2 cups Skim milk
- 0.5 cake Sugar-free angel food cake
- 2 tablespoons Grand Marnier or orange extract
- 3 medium Fresh oranges (peeled and sliced into segments)
- 1 cup Low-fat whipped topping (sugar-free)
- 2 tablespoons Dark chocolate (sugar-free, grated or shaved)
- 6 leaves Mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Prepare the low-fat, sugar-free chocolate pudding by combining the pudding mix with 2 cups of skim milk. Whisk according to the package instructions and let it set in the fridge while you prepare the other components.
Cut the sugar-free angel food cake into 1-inch cubes and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix the Grand Marnier or orange extract with 2 tablespoons of water to dilute the flavor slightly if desired.
Layer the dessert in a trifle dish or a large glass bowl: Start by placing a layer of cake cubes at the bottom. Sprinkle or lightly brush the cake with the Grand Marnier mixture to moisten it.
Add a layer of chocolate pudding on top of the cake cubes, smoothing it out with a spoon.
Arrange a layer of fresh orange segments over the chocolate pudding.
Repeat the layers (cake, Grand Marnier, pudding, oranges) until all components are used, finishing with a layer of pudding on top.
Spread the low-fat whipped topping evenly over the top layer of pudding as the final layer.
Garnish with grated or shaved dark chocolate and a few fresh mint leaves for an elegant touch.
Refrigerate the trifle for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together. Serve chilled.
