Brownie Trifle Recipe

desserts, brownie recipes, summer desserts, trifles

Are you a dessert person?  Normally I am not, but when I entertain I like to have a fabulous dessert on hand. I've come to love trifles. They're easy to assemble and look great in Trifle dishes. This dessert ended differently from the way I originally planned. Normally I use chocolate pudding, but time was not on my side so I skipped it. I was actually worried about how it would turn out, but no worries it was delicious. I'm going to by-pass the pudding from this point on. 


Here's what you need:

  • 1 Trifle Bowl
  • 1 box of fudge style brownie mix
  • 2 containers of Cool Whip
  • Sliced Strawberries
Bake brownies according to directions on the box. Allow to cool. Cut brownies into bite size squares. Layering is key to this dish. Place a layer of brownies around the bottom of the dish. Add a tablespoon of Cool Whip to the center of the brownies. Carefully spread the Cool Whip toward the edges. Be careful with this step, if it splashes against the sides of the dish it will affect the presentation. Add more Cool Whip and spread to the edges. Be generous with the Cool Whip. You want guest to have plenty with the brownies and strawberries. Add sliced strawberries around the entire dish As shown. 

Add another layer of brownies, another layer of Cool Whip and strawberries. Top the dish off with Cool Whip and fresh strawberries as shown. 

This dish was devoured. I even had one guest say "you can keep the hamburgers and hot dogs, pass me that dessert." Make this Brownie Trifle your go to dessert. You won't regret it. Do you have a favorite dessert that you like to serve when entertaining?
