Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 whole Chocolate cake (store-bought or homemade)
- 2 packages Instant chocolate pudding mix
- 4 cups Milk
- 2 cups Heavy whipping cream
- 4 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups Kahlua (or any coffee liqueur)
- 0.5 cups Chocolate shavings (for garnish)
- 0.5 cups Mini chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Prepare the chocolate pudding by whisking the instant pudding mix with the milk according to the package instructions. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes to set.
In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream using a hand or stand mixer until soft peaks form. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to whip until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
Cut the chocolate cake into small cubes, approximately 1-inch in size. This will make layering easier.
In a trifle dish or a large clear glass bowl, begin assembling the trifle.
Start with a single layer of chocolate cake cubes at the bottom of the dish. Drizzle 3-4 tablespoons of Kahlua over the cake layer, ensuring it is evenly soaked.
Add a layer of prepared chocolate pudding on top of the cake, spreading it out evenly.
Next, spoon a layer of whipped cream over the pudding, spreading it into a smooth layer.
Sprinkle a small handful of chocolate shavings or mini chocolate chips (if using) over the whipped cream layer.
Repeat the layers (cake, Kahlua, pudding, whipped cream, and garnish) until the dish is full or all the ingredients are used, finishing with a final layer of whipped cream on top.
Garnish the top layer of whipped cream with additional chocolate shavings or mini chocolate chips for decoration.
Refrigerate the trifle for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the layers to set.
Serve chilled with a large spoon to ensure each portion contains a bit of every layer. Enjoy!
