Description
Delicious, simple to prepare trifle made with cake, rich chocolate sauce, strawberries and tons of cream—the ultimate summer dessert!
Ingredients
- FOR THE CHOCOLATE SAUCE:
- 125 grams Sugar
- 30 grams Cocoa
- 25 grams Cornflour
- 1 cup Milk
- 1 cup Cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Sugar
- 1 Tablespoon Butter
- FOR THE TRIFLE:
- 700 milliliters Whipping Cream
- 1 whole Medium-sized Chocolate Cake
- 400 grams Strawberries, Sliced
- Chocolate Sprinkles, For Garnish
Preparation
First, make the chocolate sauce by heating all the sauce ingredients (except butter) in a medium-sized pan. Let mixture come to the boil and continue to cook for around 5 minutes. Remove from heat and whisk in butter until melted. Set aside to cool (you should end up with a fairly thick sauce of a pouring consistency).
Whip the cream until nice and thick and then place in the fridge until needed.
To assemble the trifle, start by placing half of the cake or brownies in a large bowl (break them into smaller pieces and try to get a fairly even layer that pretty much covers the whole of the bottom of the bowl). Next, pour half of the chocolate sauce evenly over the cake. Place half of the strawberries on top, followed by half of the cream.
Repeat layering a second time with remaining ingredients, then sprinkle with chocolate sprinkles to give it a real trifle feel. Place in the fridge until ready to eat. Enjoy!
