Cappuccino Mousse Trifle

Amy let me (Julie) make a trifle for the potluck her class is having today. I hope there's leftovers!Cappuccino Mousse Trifle
  • 2 1/2 cup cold milk
  • 1/3 cup instant coffee granules
  • 2 packages (3.4 oz each) instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 1 carton (16 oz) Cool Whip, thawed, divided
  • 2 loaves (10.75 oz each) frozen pound cake, thawed and cubed
  • 1 square (1 oz) semisweet chocolate, grated
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
In a mixing bowl, stir milk and coffee granules until dissolved; remove one cup and set aside. Add pudding mixes to the remaining milk mixture; beat on low speed for 2 minutes or until thickened. Fold in half of the whipped topping. Place a third of the cake cubes in a 4-qt. serving or trifle bowl; layer with a third of the reserved milk mixture and a third of the pudding, and a fourth of the grated chocolate. Repeat layers twice. Garnish with remaining whipped topping and chocolate. Sprinkle with cinnamon. Cover and refrigerate until serving. Serves 16-20. (I used white chocolate on top of the layers because we didn't have semisweet, and I put mini chocolate chips on top.)

Wow, that is killer. (In the best possible way.)
It looks delicious.

You brought that to Bible study once, right? If that was the same trifle, I sure know it was good!
You are such a great cook, Julie!

It's official: I'm one of the luckiest girls in the world. My incredible big sister got up early on a Saturday morning just because she wanted to make that trifle for my class. Let me tell you, it was amazing! It got so many compliments at the potluck! Thanks so much, Julie.
