Prepare the Brownie & Fruit Compote
Begin by preparing the chocolate brownies, making sure they are cut into small pieces. You can either bake your own brownies or use store-bought ones for convenience. Next, make the raspberry or strawberry compote according to the recipe or use a store-bought option. Set these aside. -
Whip the Baileys Cream
In a large mixing bowl, pour the fresh cream and add 3 tablespoons of Baileys Irish Cream. Whip the mixture until it forms soft peaks. Set this whipped cream aside to maintain its airy texture. -
Layer the Brownies
Now, take 10-12 individual glasses or dessert bowls. Place the chopped brownie pieces at the bottom of each glass. Drizzle approximately 1 tablespoon of Baileys Irish Cream over the brownies to soak them, enhancing the flavor and adding a touch of indulgence. -
Add the Fruits
Layer the peeled and sliced fruits—orange, kiwi, banana, and pineapple—over the soaked brownies. Arrange them evenly to ensure each serving has a variety of fresh fruit. -
Spoon the Vanilla Custard
Gently spoon the vanilla custard over the layer of fruits. The custard will provide a creamy texture that complements the fresh fruits and rich brownies beautifully. -
Top with Whipped Baileys Cream
Spoon the freshly whipped Baileys cream over the custard layer. This will add a luxurious and smooth topping to the trifle, making every bite a delightful experience. -
Add the Strawberry Compote
Finally, drizzle a generous spoonful of the strawberry or raspberry compote over the whipped cream. The compote adds a vibrant pop of color and a fruity, tangy contrast to the richness of the cream and custard. -
Chill and Serve
You can prepare this trifle pudding 3-4 hours ahead of time, allowing the flavors to meld and the dessert to set. However, it’s best to drizzle the compote just before serving to maintain its fresh, vibrant flavor.
Serving Suggestion
Serve the Baileys Irish Cream Trifle Pudding as the perfect dessert after a hearty meal, such as Chicken Mole with Brown Rice or a refreshing Spicy Chilli Mango Virgin Mojito. The rich, creamy layers and fruity freshness will perfectly balance the savory dishes.
Tips for the Best Trifle Pudding
- If you’re short on time, you can prepare each component in advance and assemble the trifle just before serving.
- To make the trifle even more decadent, use a mix of fresh berries for the compote or additional fruits like mango or peach.
- You can also experiment with different types of liqueurs, such as chocolate liqueur, to give the trifle a unique flavor twist.
