Ingredients
Scale
Cake and Chocolate Base:
- 1 box chocolate cake mix
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
Cream and Liqueur Mixture:
- 8 ounces (226 grams) cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) Baileys Irish Cream
- 1 cup (240 milliliters) whipped cream
Sweetener:
- 1/2 cup (100 grams) sugar
Instructions
- Whip cream cheese, sugar, and Baileys Irish Cream in a bowl until silky and uniform, then gently incorporate whipped cream for a light, airy texture.
- Deconstruct the cooled chocolate cake into delicate, bite-sized crumbles, ensuring varied textures throughout the dessert.
- Construct elegant layers in transparent serving glasses, strategically placing chocolate cake fragments as the foundational base.
- Generously spread the Baileys-infused cheesecake mixture over the cake crumbles, creating a smooth and creamy second layer.
- Sprinkle a generous amount of chocolate chips between layers, adding delightful crunch and intense chocolate flavor.
- Refrigerate the trifles for 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld and texture to set.
- Just before serving, delicately dust the surface with cocoa powder, creating a sophisticated and visually appealing finishing touch that enhances the dessert’s rich chocolate profile.
Notes
- Keep cream cheese at room temperature for smooth, lump-free mixing.
- Use high-quality chocolate cake for richer flavor and better texture.
- For a lighter version, substitute regular cream cheese with low-fat cream cheese and reduce Baileys amount.
- Chill trifle glasses beforehand to help layers set faster and maintain crisp presentation.
