Photo: Panettone Trifle Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 pound mascarpone cheese, at room temperature
- 8 ounces bittersweet or semisweet chocolate, melted
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 2 teaspoons espresso powder
- 1/4 cup coffee liqueur
- 12 ounces panettone, cubed
- Chocolate shavings, for garnish
Directions
Using an electric mixer, beat the mascarpone cheese, melted chocolate, powdered sugar, and espresso powder in a large bowl until smooth and fluffy.
Divide half of the panettone cubes among 6 wine glasses or old-fashioned glasses. Sprinkle half of the liqueur over the panettone. Top with half of the mascarpone mixture. Repeat layering with the remaining panettone, liqueur, and mascarpone mixture. Sprinkle the chocolate shavings over the trifles and serve immediately. (The trifles can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Let come to room temperature before serving.)

This is awesome! I found a chocolate Panettone made with Hershey's chocolate. I will make again and again!

too rich and sweet for my taste, maybe it could do with out the sugar. The trifle overpowers the panettone.

I've made this several times...it's always a hit. But I agree it can be a bit dry. I use a bit less powdered sugar in the cheese layer and thin it with a little whole milk or cream. I also drizzle extra liquid onto the cake, usually a mixture of cold coffee and coffee liquor. And it's very important to bring the dessert to room temp before serving.
