Want luscious, creamy layered deliciousness to serve your guests and family for special occasions that will ‘wow’ them into another dimension?
This Milk Chocolate Hazelnut Brownie Mousse Trifle is truly a chocoholics ‘heaven’!
It has divine layers of milk chocolate hazelnut brownies, rich chocolate hazelnut mousse, chopped bits of milk chocolate hazelnut bar with loads of hazelnuts and enticing dollops of sweetened whipped cream.
I had went shopping at ALDI and came across these Milk Chocolate Hazelnut Bars from Choceur, but there are a variety of brands that also have these kinds of bars, like Ritter, Godiva, Milka Milk and Lindt, to name a few. I knew these bars would be the inspiration for this trifle.
Boy, was I glad I did. I bought 4 and used 3 bars in this trifle. It’s smooth hazelnut flavored milk chocolate with delicious fresh roasted hazelnuts.
How amazing does that sound? Totally amazing, Ikr?!
Milk chocolate brownies are the way to go with this dessert! I used Pillsbury’s Milk Chocolate Brownies
These decked out brownies are sinful all by themselves, btw, if you want a quick indulgence and everyone will love them. These hazelnut brownies are what makes this dessert! Oh yes and rich milk chocolate hazelnut mousse, whipped cream and more candy bar delight.
This is one of the best trifles I’ve ever had, along with Double Stuff Oreo Brownie Chocolate Mousse Trifle, Ultimate Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup Brownie Trifle, Chocolate Covered Strawberry Brownie Trifle Delight and this Heavenly Chocolate Caramel Cheesecake Brownie Trifle.
For your next special occasion, whether it be a birthday celebration, holiday get-togethers or potlucks, this is what will impress! Wait until you taste it. It’s right up there with fireworks! 🙂
