This Death by Chocolate trifle is a make-ahead wonder. It could not be easier to throw together, but makes for a show-stopping dessert, with layers of chocolate cake soaked in cream, rich chocolate pudding, light and fluffy whipped cream, and crunchy Skor pieces.
You can make it ahead and store it in the fridge until it’s time to eat. In this busy season I love a recipe I can tailor for how much time I have. Substitute Cool Whip for the whipped cream, make the pudding from scratch, buy a chocolate loaf cake. The options are endless and I have done them all.
This is my spin on the trifle my Grammie made, first in the summer when we visited she and my Gramps in New Brunswick, it was such a hit it appeared at most all family special occasions after.
My kiddos are just the latest generation of fans and I hope you will be too!
