INGREDIENT NOTES:
VEGAN RED VELVET CAKE:
- It lends the dessert a vivid red hue and a tender texture. This cake creates the distinctive vampire appearance while keeping the rich chocolate layers intact. You can use a homemade vegan red velvet cake instead.
VEGAN BROWNIE BITES:
- These bites bring a dense, fudgy texture to the trifle. They make the dessert richer and more satisfying. You can add cubes of vegan chocolate cake for a lighter alternative.
UNSWEETENED VEGAN MILK:
- Add this vegan milk to form the pudding and to control how sweet the dessert is. Almond milk works as another option.
VEGAN CHOCOLATE SANDWICH COOKIES:
- We use these cookies to add crunch and a dark color to the trifle. They pair deliciously with creamy pudding and whipped topping. You can add vegan chocolate wafer cookies according to your preference.
INSTRUCTIONS:
- First, make 1-inch squares of the vegan red velvet cake and set the pieces aside.
- Whisk vegan chocolate pudding mix with vegan milk as per package guidelines and chill it.
- Mix chocolate syrup, corn syrup, and red food gel coloring properly in the bowl.
- Drizzle the edible blood inside the dish, then add a layer of red velvet cake squares and brownie bites.
- Include a layer of chocolate pudding on the cake and brownie pieces, then add vegan whipped topping.
- Sprinkle crushed chocolate cookies on top and make the layers with the same steps.
- Add a layer of vegan whipped topping and drizzle red edible blood on top.
