Gooseberries' Quick Chocolate Tiramisu Trifle

Ingredients


    Directions

    1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a jelly roll pan with a piece of parchment paper; set aside. Prepare brownie mix according to package directions. Pour batter into pan; bake 20-22 minutes or until wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Remove brownie from pan to cooling rack.

    2. Meanwhile, attach open star tip to a pastry bag and fill with about 3/4 cup of the whipped topping; set aside. Chop 1 1/2 of the chocolate bars; set aside. For filling, combine 1/2 cup coffee liqueur, water and instant coffee in a small bowl; stir until dissolved using a whisk. In stainless (4-qt.) mixing bowl, whisk cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add coffee mixture to cream cheese; whisk until smooth. Add pudding mix to cream cheese mixture; whisk until mixture begins to thicken. Fold in remaining whipped topping and chopped chocolate using a scraper; set aside.

    3. Cut brownie into 1-in. cubes,  if desired, using basting brush, brush brownie cubes with additional 1/2 cup coffee liqueur. To assemble trifle, place one-third of the brownie cubes into Trifle Bowl or individual cups. Layer one-third of the filling evenly over brownies. Repeat layers two more times. Pipe whipped topping in rows 1/2 in. apart over filling. Grate remaining chocolate bar over whipped topping. Refrigerate for at least two hours before serving.
