Step 1
To make the Brownies: Preheat the oven to 350oF (180oC). Grease and line a 13x9 inch baking pan
Step 2
Combine the butter, chocolate and sugar in medium saucepan; stir over medium heat until smooth. Set aside and allow to cool down.
Step 3
Stir in the eggs, vanilla, flour and salt
Step 4
Pour Brownie mix into the prepared tin and bake for 25 minutes. Take care not to over bake or they can be dry, and not fudgy
Step 5
When baked, set aside to go cold until needed. (You can make the brownie 2 days in advance, and it also freeze really well)
Step 6
For the Salted Caramel Mousse: Transfer cream cheese into Kitchen mixer. Beat at medium-high speed until smooth and no lumps, about 4 minutes.
Step 7
Add in the reserved salted caramel sauce and sugar. Continue to beat on high until fluffy, another 3 minutes., the more air the better your mousse will be.
Step 8
Whip the cream until soft peaks form. Divide the cream in half, half for the mousse and other half for cream layers.
Step 9
Fold ½ whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture. Place in fridge until needed. Taste a spoonful so you know what you have to look forward to.
Step 10
Place the other bowl of cream in the fridge until assembly of the trifle.
Step 11
For the Chocolate Sauce: Heat the cream over low heat until almost to a simmer. Pour over the chopped chocolate and whisk until smooth. Set aside.
Step 12
Assembling the Trifle: In a large trifle dish (or a big glass bowl) crumble in your fudge brownie. Leave some bits chunky so you have nice chewy texture to match the soft mousse and cream.
Step 13
Next, spoon over the Salted Caramel sauce to moisten the brownie.
Step 14
Scoop in a large spoonful of the Salted Caramel Mousse and move it around to reach the edges
Step 15
Drizzle the rich Chocolate Sauce over the Salted Caramel Mousse layer
Step 16
Lastly spoon on the whipped cream layer all the way to the edges.
Step 17
Repeat the layers again from the start: Crumbled Brownie, Caramel Sauce, Caramel Mousse, Chocolate sauce, Whipped Cream.
Step 18
To finish I crumble some brownie crumbs and drizzle over the gorgeous sauces.
Step 19
Dig deep down to enjoy all your lovely layers together. Mix it up and try your own twist on layers using your favorite flavors.
