Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 batch brownies, cooled and cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1½ cups pitted cherries, fresh or drained canned
  • 1 cup mango puree
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • ½ cup dark chocolate curls or shavings

    2. Whip heavy cream and powdered sugar to soft peaks, reserving one cup for plain whipped topping.

    3. Blend mango puree until smooth and fold into one cup of whipped cream to create mango cream.

    4. In a trifle bowl or individual glasses, layer brownies to cover the bottom.

    5. Top brownies with a layer of cherries, then spoon mango cream evenly over cherries.
