Equipment
- Baking Sheet
- Oven
- Mixing Bowl
Ingredients
- 2 box Devil's Food Cake mix
- 6 eggs eggs
- 2 cups water
- 4 tbsp vegetable oil
- 4 tbsp cocoa powder
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 jar caramel topping
- 2 tubs Cool Whip
- 1 package Heath Toffee Bits
- 1 jar hot fudge sauce
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease two 15x10x1 baking sheets with baking spray and set them aside.
- Prepare one cake mix at a time. In a large bowl, combine one cake mix, 3 eggs, 1 cup of water, 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil, 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder and ½ cup of sour cream. Mix on low speed for about 30 seconds and then increase the speed until well combined.
- Pour the cake batter into the baking sheet, spreading it evenly. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool completely.
- Repeat with the second cake mix. Once cooled, use a circular cookie cutter to cut shapes for the trifles.
- Place one cake circle in the bottom of each cup. Combine sweetened condensed milk and caramel sauce, spooning one tablespoon over the cake layer.
- Sprinkle with toffee bits and then add a layer of Cool Whip. Repeat this process until the cups are filled.
- Top each trifle with toffee bits and drizzle with hot fudge sauce. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
Notes
- Tip: If you prefer to make one large trifle, you could probably get away with just baking one cake mix and making it into two 8" rounds.
