Ingredients
- 1 box brownie mix
- 2 cups whipped cream
- 1 package Oreo cookies
- 1/2 cup chocolate syrup
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare the brownie mix according to the package instructions in a 9x13 inch baking pan. Allow the brownies to cool completely at room temperature, which typically takes about 1 hour.
- While the brownies are cooling, crush the Oreo cookies into small, bite-sized pieces. You can do this by placing the cookies in a sealed plastic bag and gently crushing them with a rolling pin or the bottom of a heavy glass.
- Once the brownies have cooled, cut them into small, uniform cubes approximately 1-inch in size. This will make layering easier and create a more visually appealing dessert.
- In a large clear glass trifle dish or a clear serving bowl, begin creating layers. Start with a base layer of brownie cubes, covering the bottom of the dish completely.
- Add a generous layer of whipped cream over the brownie cubes, spreading it evenly to cover the entire surface.
- Sprinkle a layer of crushed Oreo cookies over the whipped cream, ensuring even distribution.
- Drizzle chocolate syrup in a zigzag pattern over the Oreo cookie layer for added flavor and visual appeal.
- Repeat the layering process: brownie cubes, whipped cream, crushed Oreos, and chocolate syrup, creating 2-3 layers depending on the depth of your serving dish.
- For the final top layer, garnish with whole or half Oreo cookies and a light drizzle of chocolate syrup.
- Refrigerate the trifle for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set. This will enhance the taste and make it easier to serve.
- Serve chilled and enjoy your delicious Oreo Brownie Trifle!
Tips
- Brownie Perfection: Make sure to let your brownies cool completely before cutting them into cubes. This will ensure they hold their shape and make layering easier.
- Cookie Crushing: For evenly crushed Oreo pieces, use a sealed plastic bag and a rolling pin. This method minimizes mess and allows you to control the size of the cookie chunks.
- Layering Technique: When assembling the trifle, be generous with each layer. This not only enhances the flavor but also makes for a stunning presentation.
- Chill Time: Don’t skip the refrigeration step! Allowing the trifle to chill for at least an hour helps the flavors meld together beautifully and makes it easier to serve.
- Garnishing: For a professional touch, garnish the top layer with whole or halved Oreos and a drizzle of chocolate syrup. It adds a beautiful finishing touch that will wow your guests!
- Serving Suggestions: This trifle can be made a day in advance. Just keep it covered in the refrigerator until you’re ready to serve, making it a great option for stress-free entertaining!
