Peanut Butter Cup Brownie Trifle
A decadent, delicious dessert!
Ingredients
- 1½ cups heavy whipping cream
- ½ cup whipped cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4 to 5 cups crumbled brownies (store-bought or homemade)
- 16 ounces mini Reeses peanut butter cups
- 2 regular-sized peanut butter cups, for garnish
Instructions
PREPARE THE WHIPPED CREAM:
- In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to whip the cream until it begins to thicken slightly. Add the cream cheese, peanut butter and vanilla and continue to whip the cream to very soft peaks- when you draw the beaters through the cream, it will begin to take shape. Don't overbeat or it will be too thick.
ASSEMBLE THE TRIFLE:
- In a glass trifle dish or tall glass bowl, place a third of the brownie pieces on the bottom and up the sides of the dish. Spoon ⅓ of the whipped cream on top of the brownies, spreading it to the edges. Sprinkle some of the peanut butter cups on top of the whipped cream. Repeat two more layers, then garnish the trifle with larger peanut butter cups. Keep refrigerated until ready to serve. Leftovers are perfectly delicious for a couple of days.
