Strawberry Chocolate Trifle
Indulge in the ultimate chocolate experience with this strawberry-infused trifle, layered with rich flavours and textures. A trifle dessert is all about layering your ingredients. Here are the easy steps:
You will need:
– Chocolate muffins or cake
– Chocolate ganache and fresh cream
– Strawberries or raspberries
– Chocolate mousse or chocolate custard
Method:
– For the first layer, start with a foundation of crumbled chocolate muffins, which can be freshly baked or store-bought, depending on how much time you'd like to spend in the kitchen. You can also use sponge cake as a substitute.
– Add melted chocolate ganache and drizzle it over the crumbled muffins, allowing it to seep in.
– For the third layer, add freshly cut strawberry pieces for a pop of colour, strategically placing them around the sides and in the middle of the trifle.
– For the fourth layer, spread a rich and creamy chocolate mousse over the strawberries, providing a velvety contrast.
– Then, add a generous amount of whipped cream. Repeat the steps to add more layers and complete your beautifully layered chocolate trifle.

Peppermint Crisp Tart
This classic peppermint tart will likely grace many tables this festive season as a South African favourite. Here’s an easy-to-follow recipe:
What you’ll need:
– Chocolate mint or coconut biscuits
– Mint-flavoured chocolate slab
– Fresh cream
– Caramel treat
– Mint leaves, to garnish
Method:
Begin by crushing chocolate mint or coconut biscuits to create a crunchy foundation.
Chop the mint-flavoured chocolate of your choice.
Whip the caramel treat until smooth, then set it aside. In another bowl, whisk the fresh cream for about six minutes until it’s foamy.
Add the whipped caramel to the whipped cream and mix well until smooth. Fold in the chopped chocolate.
Depending on the quantity of dessert, use cups or a casserole dish. Start with a layer of crushed biscuits as the base, then add the caramel and cream mixture, followed by a sprinkle of crushed mint-flavoured chocolate.
Repeat the layering process and garnish with mint leaves.
