  • Author: Chris Cockren
  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 6-8 servings 1x

Description

This super-decadent, fool-proof dessert trifle is the epitome of chocolate and peanut butter overload!  Serve it up in individual dessert glasses or one big bowl family-style.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 batch prepared brownies
  • 1 package (1 oz) instant chocolate pudding mix
  • 2 cups milk
  • 2 cups chopped peanut butter cups
  • Quick 2 minute peanut butter mousse (recipe below)
  • Whipped cream (recipe below)

Peanut Butter Mousse

  • 1 package (12 oz) organic silken tofu, drained
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar 
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • Pinch Kosher salt

Whipped Cream

  • 1 cups very cold heavy cream
  • 1/3 cup powdered sugar 
  • 1 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Whisk together instant chocolate pudding mix with milk in a medium mixing bowl for 2 minutes. Refrigerate for at least 10 minutes or up to overnight.
  2. When ready to serve, chop up prepared brownies into small bite-sized pieces. Alternating between chopped brownies, chocolate pudding, quick peanut butter mousse, whipped cream, and chopped peanut butter cups, layer your trifles, dividing between 6 to 8 small dessert glasses. Alternatively, layer one large family-style dessert trifle in a large bowl.

Peanut Butter Mousse

  1. Place all ingredients in a food processor and blend until very smooth and fully incorporated. Pour mixture into a bowl and place in refrigerator for at least 30 minutes (up to overnight) to allow mousse to firm up a bit.

Whipped Cream

  1. In bowl of stand mixer or in a medium mixing bowl fitted with an electric hand mixer, beat cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla on medium/medium-high speed until stiff peaks form.
