Ingredients

Chocolate Cake:

  • Use your favorite chocolate cake recipe or even a box of your favorite chocolate cake mix. Allow cake to cool for 15 minutes before proceeding. Break up the cake into small pieces in a large bowl.

Chocolate Pudding Filling:

  • 2 packages instant chocolate pudding mix
  • 3 cups whole milk

Whipped Cream:

  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Garnish:

  • About 1 cup chocolate wafer crumbs, or chocolate-sandwich cookies, crushed into crumbs

Directions

Prepare the chocolate cake as recommended above.

To prepare the chocolate pudding filling: In a large bowl, on the medium speed of an electric mixer, beat the instant pudding and the milk for 3 minutes. Place uncovered in the refrigerator and chill until set, about 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a medium-size bowl, whip the heavy cream with the sugar and the vanilla extract until soft peaks form, being careful not to overwhip.

To assemble the trifle: Place 1/3 of the cake in the bottom of a large glass bowl. Place over this 1/3 of the pudding mixture, spreading evenly with a rubber spatula. Spread 1/3 of the whipped cream over this. Sprinkle with 1/3 of the cookie crumbs. Proceed in this fashion until three layers have been assembled, ending with a dusting of the cookie crumbs. Refrigerate at least 2 hours, or overnight, before cutting and serving.
