Oh, absolutely! A Cherry Chocolate Chip Trifle sounds like a decadent, irresistible dessert! The layers of creamy, velvety texture with bursts of cherry flavor and the crunch of chocolate chips? Yes, please! It’s like the perfect combination of fruity, chocolaty, and creamy all in one.
Here’s how you might make one:
Ingredients:
- 1 box chocolate cake mix (or homemade chocolate cake if you prefer)
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt (for extra creaminess)
- 1 cup cherries, chopped (or maraschino cherries, drained)
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
- Fresh whipped cream (for topping)
Instructions:
- Make the chocolate cake: Bake the chocolate cake according to the package instructions or your favorite recipe. Once it cools, cut it into cubes.
- Whip the cream: In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Add the sour cream or yogurt and whip until everything is thick and smooth.
- Assemble the trifle: In a trifle dish (or any clear glass bowl), layer the chocolate cake cubes, a dollop of whipped cream, cherries, and mini chocolate chips. Repeat the layers until you’ve used all your ingredients.
- Top it off: Finish with a generous layer of whipped cream and a sprinkle of chocolate chips and cherries on top for extra flair.
- Chill: Let the trifle chill in the fridge for a couple of hours (or overnight) to let the flavors meld together.
A perfect dessert for any special occasion or when you just need a sweet indulgence!
