MINT BROWNIE AND OREO HOT FUDGE TRIFLE WITH MINTY CREAM CHEESE WHIPPED CREAM Recipes

This trifle is insane. Rich. Decadent. Over the top. Possibly the most indulgent recipe I’ve posted to date. I, the girl who claims that I’ve never met a dessert “too rich,” admits that this might be the one that is pushing the “rich”ter scale.

And yet, I still could not resist this glorious concoction.

Mint brownies are topped with luscious cream cheese mint whipped cream followed by mint oreos and a very healthy drizzle of hot fudge sauce. Three layers of that beautiful craziness, in fact.

Excuse me while I gather my thoughts. Holy moly.

Have you ever wondered what it would look like to assemble a dessert of these magnificent proportions? Here you go:

INGREDIENTS
BROWNIES:
 9X13 pan of brownies, cut into small cubes (see note – you only will use about 3/4 of the pan of brownies)
MINT CREAM CHEESE WHIPPED CREAM:

•  8 ounces cream cheese, light or regular, softened
•  3 cups heavy whipping cream
•  1-2 teaspoons mint extract
•  1/2 cup powdered sugar

OREOS AND HOT FUDGE:

•  25 mint Oreos, coarsely chopped
•  1/2 – 3/4 cup hot fudge sauce, warmed slightly

INSTRUCTIONS

1. For the whipped cream, in a large bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese with about 1/2 cup of the whipping cream until the mixture is smooth. Add the mint extract, powdered sugar and the remainder of the whipping cream gradually. Mix on high speed until the cream is whipped and the mixture is very thick and creamy.
2. In a glass trifle dish (or large glass bowl), place in 1/3 of the brownies then 1/3 of the whipped cream, spreading evenly to the edges. Next sprinkle in a little more than 1/3 of the Oreos (about 10 chopped) and finally drizzle with 1/3 of the hot fudge sauce.
3. Repeat that same layering process two more times (the only difference is that I only used about 4 chopped Oreos for the very final layer – so the first two layers use about 10 chopped Oreos each).
