Time 1h25m

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 (18.25 ounce) package white cake mix
1 cup water
4 eggs
1 (3.4 ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix
⅓ cup vegetable oil
1 tablespoon almond extract
2 (15 ounce) containers ricotta cheese
1 cup confectioners' sugar
4 tablespoons white sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup heavy whipping cream, or as needed
¼ (16 ounce) package confectioners' sugar, or more to taste
1 teaspoon vanilla extract, or more to taste
½ cup chocolate chips, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10-inch fluted tube pan (such as Bundt®).
  • Combine cake mix, water, eggs, pudding mix, and almond extract in a bowl. Blend on low with an electric mixer until moistened. Increase speed to medium and blend about 2 minutes more. Pour into the prepared pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Cool in the pan for 25 minutes; transfer cake to cooling rack.
  • Combine ricotta cheese, 1 cup confectioners' sugar, white sugar, and vanilla extract in a bowl. Whip cannoli cream until smooth using an electric mixer.
  • Beat heavy cream in a chilled glass or metal bowl with an electric mixer until foamy. Add 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract at a time to achieve desired sweetness, continuing to beat until cream is stiff.
  • Transfer cooled cake to a cutting board and cut into small, bite-size pieces. Arrange 1 layer of cake pieces to cover the bottom of a trifle bowl. Top with a layer of chocolate chips and the cannoli cream. Continue with layers until bowl is nearly full; top with the whipped cream and chocolate chips.

This trifle was a disappointment. The almond cake was dry and the cannoli filling was bland. I would not recommend this recipe.

This trifle is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still very good. The almond cake is moist and the cannoli filling is rich and creamy. I would recommend using less sugar in the whipped cream.
