Photo: Chocolate Trifle Recipe
Ingredients
- 3 eggs
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
- 1 pound light brown sugar
- 2 cups self-rising flour
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 2 (3.4-ounce) packages cook-and-serve chocolate pudding mix
- 1/4 cup sherry
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1/2 cup sugar
- Mint sprigs, for garnish
Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Grease and flour a 13 by 9 by 2-inch pan. In a bowl, beat the eggs and butter together; add the brown sugar, then gradually add the flour and mix well. Stir in the vanilla. Spread the batter in the prepared pan and bake for 25 to 30 minutes. Cool and cut into squares.
Prepare the pudding according to the package directions. Let cool slightly. Crumble the blondies into chunks, put them back into the glass dish, and sprinkle with sherry. Spoon the pudding over the blondies. Beat the cream with the sugar just until stiff peaks form. Spoon the whipped cream onto the completely cooled trifle. Refrigerate until serving time.
Add mint to garnish.

I made this for a church pot luck and it was a huge hit. Absolutely fantastic! I used cool whip and it was great.

THIS WAS GREAT. I WOULD THINK THAT A GOOD COOK WOULD KNOW TO LAYER EACH INGREDIENT ON TOP OF THE OTHER. STOP CHANGING THE INGREDIENTS IF YOU HAVE NEVER MADE THE DISH, IT MAKES IT NOT THE REAL THING. YOU MAY USE LESS BUT USE THE EXACT INGREDIENT. YOU WILL THEN KNOW WHAT TO ADJUST THE NEXT TIME. THE ONLY THING THAT I SUGGEST IS TO BE CLEAN WITH YOUR COOKING. NOT BITING AND LICKING FOODS AND THE AUDIENCE CANNOT SEE HAND WASHING AND THE CHANGING OF UTENSIL AFTER IT HAS BEEN PLACED IN THE MOUTH. TO YOU WHO WANT MORE GERMS, THAT TO IS A NO-NO. KEEP UP THE GOOD COOKING PAULA WITH ADJUSTMENTS.

I love trifle but I have to give this one a thumbs down. It is not something I would make again. Trifle should be sophisticated beautiful layers: every bite should have something wonderful. This recipe takes a decadant British dessert and turns it into typical American junk food. I just did not like the taste of the processed chocolate pudding and the heavy blondie mix. Yuk. I love Paula Deen but this was a disappointing ending to a wonderful Easter meal. I suppose for a kids dessert however, as my husband put it " this is an eight year old's dream come true"!
