Chocolate Caramel Turtle Dessert Trifle
Turtle Dessert Trifle is an easy recipe for a decadent layered dessert of brownies, whipped cream, nuts, chocolate and caramel. Scrumptious!
Ingredients
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste
- 12 cups prepared brownies chopped into bite sized pieces *See Notes
- 12 ounces hot fudge sauce
- 12 ounces caramel sauce 1/2 recipe TSRI Caramel Sauce
- 1 cup chopped pecans
Instructions
- Whip heavy cream in a medium bowl using a mixer fitted with a whisk attachment. Whisk until soft peaks form. Add powdered sugar and vanilla. Continue to whisk until whipped cream is firm, or to your desired consistency. Set aside.
- Add 1/4 cup brownie bites to each trifle dish. Drizzle 1 tablespoon (or more if the mood strikes you) hot fudge sauce over brownie.
- Dollop 2 tablespoons vanilla whipped cream over top. Add 2 tablespoons brownies and drizzle 1 tablespoon (or more) caramel sauce over brownie layer. Sprinkle with chopped pecans. Repeat until all ingredients are used.
- Serve and enjoy!
Notes
- For this trifle, we used a full batch of our Fudgy Brownies recipe, which is baked in a 12x18x2-inch cake pan. You can use any type of store bought or homemade brownies that you enjoy.
- I made 8 individual trifles. If you're making one large trifle, layer it the same way as written, but use enough of each ingredient to cover the surface of the bowl.
- For individual trifles, wine glasses, trifle cups, and parfait glasses all work well. For one large trifle, use an 8-inch trifle bowl.
