Black Forest trifles are a decadent dessert that combines the rich flavours of chocolate, cherries, and cream in a layered presentation. This dessert is a twist on the classic German Black Forest cake, which is known for its chocolate cake layers, cherry filling, and whipped cream topping. The trifle version of this dessert features these same flavours in a more casual, yet still elegant presentation.
