  • (2) 1 cup tubs mascarpone
  • 10 oz carton double cream

  • Break three-quarters of the chocolate up into small pieces and place in a small heatproof bowl.
  • Sit the bowl over a pan of simmering water and stir until the chocolate has melted.
  • Spoon half over the raspberries and mix half with the mascarpone and cream.
  • Add the cream mixture and the remaining raspberries to the trifle(s) in layers, ending with a cream topping.
  • Grate over the remaining chocolate.
  • Chill in the refrigerator for 15–30 minutes, then serve.
