-
The first step in making your chocolate trifle is making your chocolate cake. To do that, you’ll want to start by preheating your oven according to the cake mix directions.
-
You should also get a 13x9 glass baking dish and spray it with nonstick cooking spray.
-
Next, add the eggs, oil, buttermilk, and cake mix to a bowl and mix until the batter is well combined.
-
Pour the cake batter into the prepared 13x9 dish and bake in the preheated oven according to the cake mix directions.
-
When the cake is finished, let it cool completely and set it aside.
-
Next you should make your pudding. Add the pudding and milk to a medium-sized mixing bowl and whisk together until the mixture is completely smooth.
-
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place it in the fridge until the pudding is set, about 2-3 hours.
-
While the cake is cool and the pudding is set, you can begin assembling your trifle. Start by cutting the cake into bite-sized pieces and setting them aside.
-
Next, grab your trifle container or containers and start layering the cake, pudding, and whipped topping.
-
Top the trifles with berries, chocolate chips, nuts, or whatever you like and your chocolate trifles are ready to serve!
