Panettone Trifle





















A truly satisfying dessert with all-time favorites: chocolate + coffee and mascarpone cheese!


Cook Time: 5 min
Level: Easy
Yield: 6 servings


Ingredients

1 pound mascarpone cheese, at room temperature
8 ounces bittersweet or semisweet chocolate, melted
1/2 cup powdered sugar
2 teaspoons espresso powder
1/4 cup coffee liqueur
12 ounces panettone, cubed
Chocolate shavings, for garnish


Directions

Using an electric mixer, beat the mascarpone cheese, melted chocolate, powdered sugar, and espresso powder in a large bowl until smooth and fluffy.


Divide half of the panettone cubes among 6 wine glasses or old-fashioned glasses. Sprinkle half of the liqueur over the panettone. Top with half of the mascarpone mixture. Repeat layering with the remaining panettone, liqueur, and mascarpone mixture. Sprinkle the chocolate shavings over the trifles and serve immediately.

(The trifles can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Let come to room temperature before serving.)
