    List of Ingredients




    Title: Black Forest Trifle
    Servings: 8

    Ingredients:

    4-1/2 cups milk
    3 ounces unsweetened chocolate
    1/3 cup cornstarch
    1/2 cup sugar
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    2 teaspoons vanilla extract
    2 cups cookie crumbs
    1 can cherry pie filling

    *Make cookie crumbs from vanilla wafers, shortbread, or chocolate chip cookies.
    **This should be a 20 ounce can---reduced-calories if available.


    1. Put 4 cups of the milk into a large, heavy saucepan. Add unsweetened chocolate (3-1-ounces pieces)Heat over moderate heat, watching carefully, until bubbles form on milk around edges of pan---milk is scalded. Remove from heat and set aside.

    2. Put cornstarch, sugar, salt and remaining 1/2 cup milk into a small bowl. Use a whisk to stir mixture until all dry ingredients are moistened and no lumps remain. Be sure mixture is well stirred just before adding to hot milk.

    3. Using a wire whisk, stir hot milk mixture in saucepan while gradually adding cornstarch-milk mixture. Return saucepan to heat and cook over moderately high heat, stirring constantly, until mixture begins to boil. Boil for 1-minute, stirring constantly.

    4. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Spoon 1/2 of pudding into a 2-quart souffle dish or glass bowl. Top with 1/3 of cookie crumbs.

    5. Set aside 1/2 of cherry-pie filling.

    6. Gently spoon half of remaining pie filling onto crumbs in bowl. Repeat layering with another third of chocolate pudding, crumbs, the remaining pie filling and the remaining chocolate pudding.

    7. Spoon remaining cookie crumbs around chocolate pudding to form a border. Fill center with reserved 1/2 cup filling.

    8. Refrigerate, covered, until pudding is well chilled. (5-6 hours)
