Ingredients

For the Cheesecake Layer

• 2 cups heavy whipping cream
• 16 oz cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Chocolate Layer

• 1 package instant chocolate pudding mix
• 2 cups cold milk

Other Layers

• 1 prepared pound cake or vanilla cake, cubed
• 2 cups fresh strawberries, sliced
• 1 cup mini chocolate chips
• Crushed chocolate cookies or graham crackers (optional)

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, then mix well.
2. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Fold the whipped cream gently into the cream cheese mixture to create a fluffy cheesecake filling.
3. In another bowl, whisk together the chocolate pudding mix and cold milk until thickened. Let it sit for 5 minutes.
4. In a trifle dish or large glass bowl, start layering:
   • Cubed cake
   • Cheesecake filling
   • Chocolate pudding
   • Strawberries
   • Chocolate chips
5. Repeat the layers until the dish is full, finishing with strawberries and chocolate chips on top.
6. Chill for at least 2 hours before serving for the best flavor and texture.

Tips

• Add sliced bananas for extra flavor.
• Use brownie cubes instead of cake for a richer dessert.
• Make individual trifles in cups for parties.
• Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
