Ingredients

🥛 1 and 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
🥫 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
🌴 10 Medjool dates
🌰 1/2 cup almonds (raw or roasted)
🥜 1/2 cup crushed pistachios
🥥 1/2 cup sweetened coconut flakes
🍪 16 ladyfingers
🥛 1 cup milk

Instructions

1- Prepare the Whipped Cream:

• Begin by whisking together 1 and 1/2 cups of heavy whipping cream and 1 cup of sweetened condensed milk.
• Beat the mixture for about 5 minutes, or until it reaches stiff peaks.

2- Prepare the Fruits and Nuts:

• Remove the pits from the 10 Medjool dates and chop them into small pieces.
• Chop the almonds to your desired size.
• Crush the pistachios if they aren't already crushed, and have your coconut flakes ready.

3- Layer the Ladyfingers:

• Pour 1 cup of milk into a shallow plate.
• Snap each ladyfinger in half and briefly dip them in the milk.
• Place two milk-soaked halves at the bottom of each serving cup to form the first layer.

4- Layer the Ingredients:

• On top of the ladyfingers, add a layer of the whipped cream mixture.
• Sprinkle a combination of chopped dates, coconut flakes, chopped almonds, and crushed pistachios over the cream.
• Repeat the layering process: add another set of ladyfingers, then whipped cream, followed by dates, coconut flakes, almonds, and pistachios until the cup is full.

5- Refrigerate and Serve:

• Allow the trifles to sit in the fridge for about an hour, which will soften the ladyfingers and let the flavors meld.
• Serve chilled and enjoy your delightful Klecha-inspired trifle!
