With Christmas around the corner, tis the season for gingerbread! It’s one of my favorite flavors for the season, and I paired it with a hazelnut crunch topping on mini trifles for the ultimate mini dessert sure to wow your friends and family at holiday parties this year. Not hosting a party? Just serve up these fancies to your family on Christmas Eve around your fireplace while sharing your favorite memories of the year.
Why I love this dessert? It’s EASY! We’re all adding last minute decorations around the house, wrapping gifts, and getting caught up in the hustle and bustle. We need easy, cute recipe ideas that are tasty in minutes. These mini gingerbread hazelnut crunch trifles can also be made in advance and saved in the refrigerator (just pull out 30 minutes before serving).
If you don’t have mini trifle glasses, just swap in a martini or wine glass for an equally fancy twist! You can even tie a ribbon around for extra pizzazz.
The gingerbread cake is soft and moist while the cinnamon ginger buttercream adds a creamy twist. The topping is a hazelnut crunch that is ready in minutes!
Enjoy this mini dessert during your holiday season!
