Irish Creme Chocolate Trifle
"I created this yummy trifle when I was given a bottle of Irish Cream liqueur as a gift and had leftover peppermint candy," relates Margaret Wilson of Hemet, California. "I’ve served it with both liqueur and coffee creamer and candy canes, too. It’s always rich and decadent."
