Ingredients
Scale
Gather the following ingredients to make your Ferrero Rocher Trifle:
- 12 Ferrero Rocher chocolates, roughly chopped
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup chocolate hazelnut spread (like Nutella)
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup chocolate ganache (store-bought or homemade)
- 1/4 cup crushed hazelnuts for garnish (optional)
Instructions
Prepare the Whipped Cream:
- Whip the Cream: In a mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Set aside in the refrigerator to keep it cool.
Prepare the Chocolate Hazelnut Layer:
- Combine Hazelnut Spread and Milk: In a separate bowl, whisk together the chocolate hazelnut spread and milk until smooth and well combined. This mixture will serve as one of the dessert layers.
Prepare the Ganache:
- Prepare the Chocolate Ganache: If using homemade ganache, heat 1 cup of heavy cream until warm (not boiling), then pour it over 1 cup of chopped dark chocolate. Stir until smooth. If using store-bought ganache, just warm it slightly in the microwave.
Assemble the Trifle:
- Layer the Trifle: In a large glass trifle dish or individual serving cups, begin by layering the chocolate hazelnut mixture at the bottom. Follow with a layer of whipped cream, and then sprinkle with the chopped Ferrero Rocher chocolates. Repeat this process until the trifle is filled, finishing with a layer of whipped cream on top.
- Add the Ganache: Pour the chocolate ganache over the top layer of whipped cream. This will create a glossy, rich topping that will soak into the layers slightly.
Chill and Serve:
- Refrigerate: Place the trifle in the refrigerator for at least 2-3 hours (or overnight) to allow the flavors to meld together and the dessert to firm up.
- Garnish and Serve: Before serving, garnish the trifle with crushed hazelnuts, extra Ferrero Rocher chocolates, or cocoa powder for a finishing touch.
