Ingredients
- 1 cup cookie dough
- 2 cups whipped cream
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 cup crushed cookies
Instructions
- Prepare your ingredients by ensuring all components are chilled and ready. Crush the cookies into small, uniform pieces using a food processor or by placing them in a sealed plastic bag and crushing with a rolling pin.
- In a large mixing bowl, gently fold the whipped cream to create a light and airy texture. If using homemade whipped cream, whip until soft peaks form.
- Break the cookie dough into small, bite-sized chunks. For food safety, use edible cookie dough or ensure the dough is made without raw eggs.
- Select a clear glass trifle dish or individual serving glasses to showcase the beautiful layers of the dessert.
- Begin layering by creating a base of crushed cookies at the bottom of the dish, ensuring an even distribution.
- Add a layer of whipped cream over the crushed cookies, spreading it gently to cover the entire surface.
- Sprinkle cookie dough chunks across the whipped cream layer, creating a visually appealing and delicious distribution.
- Scatter chocolate chips over the cookie dough layer for added texture and flavor.
- Repeat the layering process 2-3 times, ending with a decorative top layer of whipped cream, chocolate chips, and crushed cookies.
- Refrigerate the trifle for at least 1 hour before serving to allow flavors to meld and layers to set.
- When ready to serve, garnish with additional chocolate chips or a whole cookie on top for an elegant presentation.
Tips
- Food Safety First: Always use edible cookie dough or ensure your homemade dough is made without raw eggs to prevent any health risks.
- Chill for Success: Keep all ingredients cold before assembling to maintain the perfect texture and prevent melting.
- Layer with Precision: Use a clear glass dish to showcase the beautiful layers, and take your time creating even, attractive layers.
- Texture is Key: Crush cookies uniformly and break cookie dough into consistent bite-sized chunks for the best eating experience.
- Make Ahead Magic: This dessert tastes even better when refrigerated for a few hours, allowing flavors to meld together perfectly.
- Presentation Matters: Garnish with a few extra chocolate chips or a whole cookie on top to make your trifle look professionally prepared.
