In this article, we’ll take a closer look at how to make Chocolate Mousse Trifle.
What is the definition of Chocolate Mousse Trifle
The meaning of Chocolate Mouse Trifle is:
”A dessert in a glass with three layers that consist of crumbled Oreo cookies, chocolate mousse and whipped cream”.
Chocolate Mousse Trifle
A dessert that you can easily make in a glass. This dessert might just be one of your favorite glass of desserts. Often making a dessert is in the simplicity. This recipe also belongs to this category.
It simply consists of three parts: a cookie layer, a chocolate mousse layer and a whipped cream layer. You can’t go wrong with the first part. With the second part, you have to make sure that the chocolate is cold enough when you mix it with the whipped cream. The moment you don’t do this or the chocolate is too warm, you will notice that your chocolate mousse becomes watery.
Anyone can make whipped cream. Whip the fresh cream until you see soft peaks, then you know the whipped cream is ready. You can always add some sugar to the whipped cream. I left this out as the chocolate and oreo cookies already contain sugar. In short, an amazing dessert! Depending on the size of the glass you can make this dessert for 1 or 2 persons.

This dessert recipe is so easy. You need the follow ingredients: Oreo cookies, dark chocolate and fresh cream.
The first step is to unwrap 14 Original Oreo Cookies/Biscuits and crumble them using a food processor. If you want a cheaper solution, you can also buy the supermarket ”home” brand.

Cut 100 grams of dark chocolate into small pieces and put the pieces in a mixing bowl. Add 60 ml of fresh cream to the mixing bowl and melt everything au-bain-marie. Put a pan with hot water and place the mixing bowl on top. This is the easiest way to melt au-bain-marie style.
To make the whipped cream add 30 ml of fresh cream to a food processor and blend to soft peaks. Gradually add the completely cooled chocolate to your mixing bowl with half of the whipped cream. Use the other half of the whipped cream later.
