Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

• 1 batch of fudgy brownies (prepared and cooled)
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 8 oz cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup shredded coconut
• 1/2 cup chocolate pudding mix
• 2 cups milk
• 1/2 cup sliced almonds

Instructions

1. Prepare the brownies according to your favorite recipe and allow them to cool completely.
2. In a mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Set aside.
3. In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth, then gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Fold in the whipped cream and shredded coconut to create a light, fluffy mixture.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the chocolate pudding mix and milk until thickened.
5. To assemble the trifle, cut the cooled brownies into squares and layer them at the bottom of a trifle dish.
6. Add a layer of chocolate pudding on top of the brownies, spreading it evenly.
7. Next, spoon a layer of the coconut cream mixture over the pudding, smoothing it out gently.
8. Repeat the layering process until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of coconut cream on top.
9. Garnish with sliced almonds and extra shredded coconut if desired. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving. Enjoy!

Notes

Storage: Keep the trifle covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days for the best taste and texture.

For a lighter version of this trifle, consider using low-fat cream cheese or whipped topping in the coconut layer. You can also swap the brownies for gluten-free brownies if necessary.

Make sure to let the brownies cool completely before layering to prevent any melting. This trifle can be made a day in advance; just keep it refrigerated until you’re ready to serve!
