Helping RoRo Clean Up . . . .

One of the deserts my aunt prepared was a chocolate trifle. Needless to say, it was a hit! I love these pictures of Richard and Amy digging into what was left of the trifle and helping RoRo clean things up a bit. Thanks to Lyndsey for taking these with my camera "on accident." (She thought she had her dad's camera, but I am glad she had mine!)



Chocolate Trifle or Death by Chocolate

1 chocolate cake baked according to directions or
1 family recipe of brownies
1/2 c. chocolate syrup
1 3oz package of instant chocolate pudding, mixed
1 12 oz. carton of cool whip
1 8 oz pkg. of toffee pieces (for Carter's peanut allergy, I use chocolate chips)
1 chocolate candy bar

After removing the cake or brownies from the oven, crumble and pour syrup over.
In a separate bowl, mix prepared pudding and 1/2 of the cool whip.
In a large bowl, layer the following:
1/2 cake mixture
1/2 toffee pieces
1/2 pudding mixture
Repeat layers
Top with remaining whipped topping. Garnish with candy bar shavings. Refrigerate several hours before serving.

  1. We wish we could have been there. That dessert has been a hit everywhere I've seen it made.
