Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box (18.3 oz) brownie mix
  • Eggs, oil, and water (as per brownie mix instructions)
  • 1 cup strong brewed coffee, cooled
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon peppermint extract
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup crushed peppermint candies
  • 1/2 cup chocolate shavings

Instructions

  1. Prepare brownies according to package directions. Let cool completely, then cut into 1-inch cubes.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together cooled coffee, powdered sugar, cocoa powder, and peppermint extract until smooth.
  3. In a separate bowl, whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
  4. Gently fold the whipped cream into the coffee mixture until just combined.
  5. In a trifle dish or individual glasses, layer the brownie cubes, mocha mousse, and crushed peppermint candies.
  6. Repeat layers until the dish is full, ending with mocha mousse.
  7. Garnish with chocolate shavings and a few extra crushed peppermint candies.

Notes

  • For a richer brownie flavor, use a dark chocolate brownie mix.
  • Adjust peppermint extract to your preference.
  • You can substitute whipped topping for heavy cream if desired.
  • Ensure brownies are fully cooled before cubing to prevent crumbling.
