Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups red velvet cake (crumbled)

  • 2 cups whipped cream cheese frosting

  • 1 cup fresh strawberries

  • ½ cup chocolate ganache

  • Optional: whipped topping, chocolate curls


Instructions

  1. Crumble red velvet cake into your bowl or cups.

  2. Add a layer of cream cheese frosting.

  3. Top with strawberries and ganache.

  4. Repeat layers twice.

  5. Chill before serving.

Notes

  • Make-Ahead Friendly: You can assemble the trifle up to 24 hours ahead. Keep it refrigerated and covered until ready to serve.

  • Moisture Management: Allow cake or brownie layers to fully cool before layering. This prevents excess moisture from making the trifle soggy.

  • Layering Tip: Use a piping bag for neat, aesthetic cream layers—especially in clear glasses or cups.

 

  • Customization: Feel free to switch fruits (try cherries or raspberries) or replace ganache with chocolate pudding for a kid-friendly version.
