Description

A rich and creamy chocolate trifle layered with soft chocolate cake, smooth chocolate pudding, fluffy whipped cream, and finished with chocolate shavings. A classic no-bake dessert that is indulgent, elegant, and perfect for sharing.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 400 g chocolate sponge cake, cut into cubes
  • 3 cups chocolate pudding, prepared and chilled
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream, cold
  • 3 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 100 g chocolate shavings

Instructions

  1. Chill a mixing bowl and whisk in the refrigerator for a few minutes to help the cream whip properly.
  2. In the chilled bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
  3. Prepare a clean, dry, clear trifle bowl or glass serving bowl.
  4. Add a layer of chocolate sponge cake cubes to the bottom of the bowl.
  5. Spoon a layer of chocolate pudding evenly over the cake.
  6. Spread a layer of whipped cream gently over the pudding.
  7. Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with whipped cream on top.
  8. Sprinkle chocolate shavings evenly over the final layer.
  9. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the layers to set.

Notes

  • For cleaner layers, chill the trifle briefly between layering steps.
  • Do not overwhip the cream, as it should stay light and smooth.
  • The trifle can be made up to 24 hours in advance for best flavor.
