Last week we got riled up about a Cadbury Fingers Easter egg, and now we’re all about this Easter-themed trifle. This time, it’s my Creme Egg trifle. This is one of those bakes that has been requested over and over throughout the years, and I will admit… I’ve just never got round to it. It’s not that I didn’t want to, but I had so many delicious Creme Egg bakes I didn’t want to do too many! For the full recipe with measurements, head to the recipe card at the end of this post. How to make Creme Egg Trifle But, hey, seeing as Easter is all about chocolate eggs, it’s never too early to get egg-cited, right? To start, make the chocolate custard. Warm some ready made custard in a pan on a low heat, then add some milk chocolate and stir until it melts into it. Then put it in the fridge to cool completely with cling film over it. If you can easily find ready made chocolate custard then you could use that instead to skip this step.

There are various recipes for a creme egg trifle around, as well as one being sold in shops sometimes – but I just wanted to post a recipe for a creme egg trifle that was essentially my dream combination of ingredients, and here you have it. Yes, it’s sweet, but it’s a chocolate trifle. It’s always a battle between what easter chocolates are better, usually between mini eggs and Creme Eggs… and whilst I definitely have my favourite, both are delicious ingredients for easter baking. My Creme Egg cupcakes are always super popular, along with my Creme Egg loaf cake.Every now and again I will get a comment insulting me for using shop bought ingredients that are ready made; and I just don’t understand why. I write my recipes for others, some who have absolutely no baking skill whatsoever, some that have little time, some that don’t have a massive budget and so on… and sometimes, it’s just easier. Of course, if you want to make all of the bits entirely yourself, go for it as that is amazing!! Tbh mate, you had me at “layered” but sort-of lost me at “sharing”, because I’ll be eating that whole thing to myself (always eat trifle responsibly).

But the good news is, Easter is just around the corner. Well, if the corner was located approximately three months away… This trifle should be stored in the fridge and it will last 2-3 days. Can this trifle be made gluten free?I made homemade brownies for the brownie layer, but you can of course use shop bought if it's easier. In a trifle dish, start with the layer of brownie pieces. Feast your eyes on this epic Creme Egg Trifle! It's made up of a layer of chocolate brownies, then chocolate custard, then vanilla cheesecake with Creme Egg halves, then I've topped it with whipped cream and custard (to look like a fried egg) and of course more Creme Eggs on top! This is the ultimate Easter dessert to impress your friends and family, and best of all it's easy to make. If you use shop bought brownies then there is no baking involved at all! Ingredient Tips & Equipment Information As I posted my lemon trifle recipe recently, I didn’t really want to post one that was too similar and therefore a bit pointless. This one has a mainly chocolate base, with no jelly – but it is still SO good. I started the recipe off with chocolate Swiss roll, which was ready made from the supermarket, but you can of course make your own. A layered sharing dessert with Cadbury milk chocolate dessert, chocolate mousse, chocolate chip cookie and fondant dessert with a creamy topping.
