Chocolate Biscotti Trifle

Ingredients:

Makes 1 Large Trifle or 4 smaller

24 pieces of Orgran GF Biscotti
2 Pints heavy whipping cream
2 tsp vanilla essence
3 Tbls icing/confectioners sugar, sifted

Decorative Toppings:


maraschino cherries
chocolate sauce
chocolate shavings

Make 1-2 days in advance to allow whipped cream to absorb into and soften the biscotti pieces into a cake-like texture.


Place GF biscotti in a Ziploc bag Break biscotti into small pieces.
Use a cutting board with a towel under it to absorb shock.
Hammer bagged biscotti into small pieces.
Place in bowl and set aside

In a large separate bowl, pour in heavy whipping cream, vanilla and icing/confectioners sugar.
You will need a large bowl for 2 Pints of whipping cream.
Whip with hand-held electric mixer until stiff.

Pour broken GF biscotti pieces, and crumbs, into whipped cream.
Mix by hand with a spatula until each piece is fully covered with whipped cream
Pour mixture into a large trifle bowl, baking dish, or several mini trifle bowls or dessert dishes

Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1-2 days.
GF Biscotti will become softer and more cake-like the longer it stays in the refrigerator

When serving, remove plastic wrap and serve as is or decorate with drizzled chocolate sauce, chocolate shavings and maraschino cherries

For sweeter cream, add 1 tbsp icing/confectioners sugar (sifted) at a time.
Taste before you add more so your cream does not become too sweet.
