Twix Trifle

This twix trifle was first thought up as a quick Easter dessert. My family quickly fell in love with it and so, I decided I would share it. I decided I would just make two individual trifles and put the rest into cake balls. The recipe can easily go into a large trifle bowl. To do that, just double the recipe except for the cake mix. You will definitely want to try these mugs of chocolate caramel goodness. There's a surprise crunch from chopped up twix candy bars in the layers.

I find that every time I make cake pops, I have a helping hand. It's so cute to watch my son climb up on my stool and reach for a cake pop ball. Most of the time, he'll take down two or three before I get them coated with chocolate or a stick pushed in them. Nothing is cuter than a baby Lucian sporting a cake goatee.

Ingredients

  

Cake

• 1 boxed cake mix , prepared
• 3 eggs
• 1 cup water
• ½ cup oil

Caramel Whipped Cream

• 1 half pint heavy cream
• 1 cup caramel topping

Chocolate Pudding

• 1 box fudge chocolate pudding
• 2 cups milk , cold

Garnishes

• ½ cup hot fudge topping
• 1 king size Twix bar

Instructions

Cake

• Prepare your boxed cake mix. My cake mix called for 3 eggs, 1 cup water, and ½ cup oil. Follow the directions on the back of the box.

Whipped Cream

• In a large bowl, beat heavy cream on high. I used a large bowl, so the cream wouldn't go all over the counter as I mixed it on high.
• Once it becomes stiff and fluffy, Make a hole in the middle for the caramel to sit. I do this so that the heaviness of the caramel doesn't deflate the whipped cream.
• Pour about 1 cup of caramel in the hole. Turn the mixer on high and whip until the caramel is incorporated.
• Place in the fridge until the cake and pudding are prepared.
• Once everything is prepared, place whipped cream in a piping bag.

Pudding

• In a small bowl, pour the pudding and 2 cups of milk in. Whisk for two minutes. Let set for 5 minutes.
• Place in a piping bag or ziploc bag.

Assembling Trifle

• In your mugs or trifle bowl, start out with pieces of the cake. I just ripped pieces off and stuffed them in the mug.
• Pipe a layer of whipped cream.
• Pipe a layer of pudding.
• Chop of a Twix bar and spread the pieces evenly on top of the pudding layer.
• Add another layer of cake, whipped cream, pudding, and Twix pieces.
• Repeat until you come to the top of the trifle.
• Top with piped whipped cream and shards of Twix.
• Heat the fudge topping for 30 seconds and drizzle on top.
• Cut Twix bar in half and add for the last garnish in your individual trifle mugs.
