To make the Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Trifle Recipe, you will need 1 box of chocolate cake mix, 1 cup of water, 1/2 cup of vegetable oil, 3 eggs, 1/2 cup of creamy peanut butter, 1/2 cup of powdered sugar, 1 cup of chocolate chips, 1 cup of heavy whipping cream, and 1/4 cup of chopped peanuts.
To assemble the trifle, start by baking the chocolate cake according to the instructions on the box and letting it cool. Then, mix together the peanut butter and powdered sugar to create a peanut butter cream. Cut the chocolate cake into small cubes and layer them with the peanut butter cream, chocolate chips, and chopped peanuts in a trifle dish. Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used up, ending with a layer of whipped cream on top.
Yes, you can use any type of cake for this recipe, such as vanilla or yellow cake. However, chocolate cake pairs well with the peanut butter and chocolate flavors in this trifle.
Yes, you can make this trifle ahead of time. It is actually recommended to let it chill in the fridge for at least an hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld together. You can make it up to 24 hours in advance and store it in the fridge until ready to serve.
This recipe makes 10-12 servings, depending on the size of your trifle dish and how large you cut the cake cubes. You can easily double the recipe for a larger crowd or halve it for a smaller gathering.
