Description
A cozy no-bake dessert featuring layers of rich coffee, Irish cream liqueur, and whipped cream this Irish Coffee Trifle is perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
- 1 cup brewed coffee
- 1/2 cup Irish cream liqueur
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Ladyfinger cookies or cake pieces
- Chocolate shavings or cocoa powder for garnish
Instructions
- Start by brewing a robust cup of coffee and let it cool down. Once it has cooled, whisk in the Irish cream liqueur until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, take the heavy cream and whip it together with the sugar and vanilla extract. Keep whipping until soft peaks form.
- Grab a trifle dish and begin layering with the coffee mixture at the bottom, followed by ladyfinger cookies or cake pieces. After that, dollop on a generous layer of whipped cream.
- Repeat these layers until you use up all the ingredients, finishing off with a final layer of whipped cream on top.
- For that extra touch of decadence, garnish with chocolate shavings or a light dusting of cocoa powder.
- Place the trifle in the refrigerator for at least an hour, allowing the flavors to meld and the dish to chill nicely.
