Our Chocolate Trifle recipe is made quick and easy from scratch, with layers of chocolate cake, chocolate pudding, whipped cream, and crushed heath bars.
Prepare chocolate pudding: here's my homemade chocolate pudding recipe, or use a large box of instant chocolate pudding.
Cut the baked chocolate cake into small cubes. (Use our homemade chocolate cake, or a cake mix, baked in a 9x13'' pan.)
Whip Cream: Place whipping cream in a large mixing bowl. Beat with electric beaters for 1-2 minutes. Slowly add the powdered sugar and continue beating until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
Assemble: Layer 1/3 of the cake cubes in the bottom of a trifle dish. Dollop 1/3 of the pudding mixture over the cake. Sprinkle 1/3 of the heath bar pieces over the pudding. Spread 1/3 of the whipped cream over the heath bars. Repeat with two more layers.
Refrigerate trifle for 1-2 hours before serving.
