St. Patrick’s Day Mint Chocolate Trifles Instructions

Making these delicious little sinful trifles is incredibly easy. All you have to do is whip up some pudding, color it, crumble up the cookies and then layer both in some cute little cups or bowls. Top the trifles off with some whipped cream, green and gold sprinkles, and an edible gold coin. That’s it!

Step One: Prepare the Pudding

• Make the vanilla pudding according to the package instructions.
• Mix in 2-4 drops of green food coloring at the same time you add the milk to the pudding mix. If you prefer a darker color, just use more drops.
• Refrigerate until ready to assemble.

Step Two: Crush the Cookies

• Place the mint creme Oreos in a resealable plastic bag.
• Use a rolling pin to crush the cookies into small crumbs.

Step Three: Assemble the Trifles

• Add a layer of cookie crumbs to the bottom of each trifle cup.
• Spoon a layer of green vanilla pudding over the cookies.
• Repeat the layers until the cups are full, making sure to finish with a cookie layer on top.

Step Four: Garnish and Serve

• Top each Mint Chocolate Trifle with a dollop of whipped cream.
• Follow with a light dusting of green and gold sprinkles.
• Then add a chocolate gold coin as the finishing touch.

Can You Make Mint Chocolate Trifles Ahead of Time?

St. Patrick’s Day Mint Chocolate Trifles can be made a day in advance. Just note: if you serve right after making, or within a few hours, the cookies will remain very crisp and crunchy.

If you serve the next day, however, the cookies will become softer. It doesn’t change the taste at all though, and it’s truly a personal preference.

In addition, I would not add the whipped cream until right before you serve these St. Patrick’s Day desserts. Otherwise, the whipped cream will begin to melt. And while it tastes amazingly delicious mixed in with the mint chocolate cookies and vanilla pudding, it doesn’t look as good.
