Ingredients

Scale

1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar
1/2 cup Bailey’s Irish Cream
2 cups heavy whipping cream
1 (12 oz) package chocolate sandwich cookies, crushed
1 (8 oz) package instant chocolate pudding mix
2 cups cold milk
1 cup chocolate chips, melted for drizzle
Whipped cream for topping

Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add in the powdered sugar and Bailey’s Irish Cream, mixing until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form, then gently fold it into the Bailey’s cream cheese mixture.
In another bowl, prepare the chocolate pudding mix with cold milk according to package instructions.
To assemble the trifle, layer the bottom of a trifle dish or individual glasses with crushed chocolate sandwich cookies.
Add a layer of the Bailey’s cream cheese mixture over the cookies, followed by a layer of chocolate pudding.
Repeat the layering process until the dish is full, ending with a layer of Bailey’s cream cheese mixture.
Drizzle the melted chocolate over the top layer, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.
Before serving, top with a generous swirl of whipped cream and an extra drizzle of chocolate.

Notes

For a non-alcoholic version, replace Bailey’s with an equal amount of heavy cream and add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. This trifle is perfect for a luxurious dessert at your next gathering.
