Indulgent Chocolate Berry Trifle

As we approach the peak of berry season, I am eager to share with you a decadent and delightful dessert that combines the richness of chocolate with the freshness of seasonal berries. This indulgent chocolate berry trifle is a show-stopping treat perfect for summer gatherings or special occasions.

For this recipe, you will need the following ingredients:

  • 250g chocolate sponge cake
  • 500ml chocolate pudding
  • 300ml whipped cream
  • 300g mixed berries (strawberries, raspberries, blueberries)
  • 50g chocolate shavings

Gather your kitchen tools:

  • mixing bowl
  • trifle dish
  • whisk
  • spatula

Begin by layering the bottom of your trifle dish with pieces of chocolate sponge cake, creating a solid base for the dessert. Next, generously drizzle a layer of chocolate pudding over the cake, ensuring it seeps into all the crevices for maximum flavor.

On top of the chocolate pudding, add a layer of fresh mixed berries, creating a colorful contrast to the rich chocolate. The burst of fruity flavors will add a refreshing element to the dessert.

Repeat the layers of chocolate sponge cake, chocolate pudding, and mixed berries until you reach the top of the trifle dish. Finish off the trifle with a generous dollop of whipped cream and sprinkle chocolate shavings on top for an elegant finish.

Once assembled, allow the trifle to chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour to allow the flavors to meld together and the dessert to set properly.

This indulgent chocolate berry trifle weighs approximately 1200g and serves 6-8 people. Each serving is around 150g, with an estimated calorie count of 350 per portion.

An unusual tip to enhance the flavor of this trifle is to sprinkle a pinch of sea salt over each layer of chocolate pudding. The salt will elevate the richness of the chocolate and add a subtle depth to the dessert.

I encourage you to give this indulgent chocolate berry trifle a try and make it your own by experimenting with different types of berries or adding a splash of liqueur to the pudding. Enjoy the process of creating this stunning dessert and sharing it with your loved ones.
