ayers of decadence with this Chocolate Banana Trifle Delight

Preparation Steps

1. Bake the Chocolate Cake:

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt.
• In another bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
• Divide the batter between the prepared pans and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool completely on a wire rack.

1. Prepare the Chocolate Cream:

• In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gradually add powdered sugar and cocoa powder, continuing to whip until stiff peaks form.
• In another bowl, prepare the chocolate pudding according to package instructions using milk. Once set, gently fold the pudding into the whipped cream to create a light and fluffy chocolate cream.

1. Assemble the Trifle:

• Once the chocolate cake has cooled, crumble it into bite-sized pieces. In a large glass trifle bowl or individual cups, start layering the ingredients.
• Begin with a layer of chocolate cake, followed by a layer of sliced bananas, then a generous layer of chocolate cream. Repeat the layers until you reach the top of the bowl, finishing with a layer of chocolate cream.

1. Garnish and Chill:

• Top the final layer with chocolate shavings or sprinkles for an elegant touch. Cover the trifle and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the layers to set.

Tips for Customization

• Fruit Variations: Add other fruits like strawberries or raspberries for added flavor and color.
• Boozy Twist: For an adult version, consider adding a splash of liqueur, such as Kahlua or Bailey’s, to the chocolate cream or cake layers.
• Nutty Addition: Sprinkle some chopped nuts between layers for added crunch.
