Ingredients
Scale
- 2 simple mills brownie mix
- 1 cup coconut oil, butter or ghee, melted
- 6 tablespoons water
- 4 eggs
- 3 cup milk, any milk, including dairy-milk, cashew milk, almond milk or coconut milk will work
- 3/4 cup chia seeds
- 6 tablespoons cacao powder
- 6 tablespoons maple syrup
- 3 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4 13.5 ounce cans full-fat coconut milk, chilled 24-48 hours
- 4 tablespoon maple syrup, honey or other sweetener
- 4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
- For the Chocolate Chia Pudding Mousse: Add all ingredients to a high-powered blender.
- Blend on high for one minute, or until the pudding is creamy.
- Transfer the pudding to a bowl, cover, and chill at least 4 hours.
- For the Coconut Whipped Cream: Place your can of coconut milk in the refrigerator for 1-2 days before making this whipped cream.
- Chill your mixing bowl for 30 minutes, then open your can of coconut milk and scoop out the hardened coconut cream. Pour the coconut water into a separate storage container.
- Using a hand mixer, fluff up the coconut cream for one minute.
- Add any sweetener and vanilla extract and mix for an additional minute.
- For the Brownie: Pre-heat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and grease two 8×8-inch or 9×9-inch square baking pans.
- Mix the coconut oil or butter and water together in a large bowl.
- Whisk in the eggs and then add the baking mix. Stir until it is combined.
- Spread the mixture evenly into the greased pans and smooth it out on top.
- Bake the brownies for 20-25 minutes and let them cool completely.
- For Layering The Trifle: Cut the brownies into 1-inch squares and create a double layer at the bottom of the container. Make sure to create a dense layer, with each cube sitting tightly next to each other.
- Add 1/2 of the chocolate chia pudding and spread evenly into one layer.
- Add 1/2 of the coconut whipped cream and spread evenly into the middle layer.
- Repeat the brownie and chocolate chia pudding layers.
- Add the remaining coconut whipped cream into a large dollop on top of the chocolate chia pudding.
- Garnish with chocolate shavings and serve.
Notes
- For the coconut whipped cream, save the reserved coconut water for a future smoothie recipe.
