We found a Trifle bowl at a flea market recently for $3. Score! I just love flea markets. DH and I have wanted one for quite awhile but didn't want to pay what they want for a new one. Imagine our glee when we found this in a booth!!
We are having our son, daughter in law and grandson over for Wahoo! Chili tonight so we gotta have dessert right? Heck yeah. Well I always have the pound cakes in stock so we decided on Classy Chocolate. I wrote my DH a list and off to the store he went.
Here's the result and the recipe. Feel free to change it up. Make it yours!
Doesn't that look delicious?
Ingredients:
Classy Chocolate Pound Cake
1 1/2 sticks of butter
1 cup water
1 large box of vanilla instant pudding mix
3 cups milk (we used fat free, use what you have)
1 8oz bar of cream cheese
1 tub of whipped topping
Creamy Caramel Sauce or Caramel Ice Cream Topping
Berries of your choice
Make your pound cake and let cool for at least 2 hours, longer if you can.
In a bowl whip your cream cheese until it is smooth. I put mine in the microwave in my glass bowl (don't do this with a metal bowl!) for 20 seconds if you need to.
In a separate bowl, mix the vanilla pudding according to the package directions.
When well combined add to the cream cheese and mix until thick and somewhat smooth. It will still have cream cheese bits in it.
Add half of the whipped topping and fold in until smooth and well combined.
Cover and chill for at least 20 minutes.
When the pound cake is cool, cube it and place half of it in the bottom of a trifle bowl.
Add a layer of the pudding mixture, then a row of berries around the edge. Drizzle with caramel sauce and repeat the layers. Add the other half of the whipped topping to the top, drizzle with more caramel and garnish with berries.
Allow to chill while you have dinner and then serve. Enjoy!!
