Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking pan with butter or nonstick spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and glossy—about 2 minutes.
  3. Beat in the eggs and vanilla extract until well combined, then sift in the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder.
  4. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and bake for 25-30 minutes.
  5. Allow brownies to cool completely before cutting them into bite-sized pieces.
  6. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until creamy, then mix in caramel sauce, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract.
  7. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form and gently fold it into the cream cheese mixture.
  8. In a trifle dish or serving glasses, layer brownie pieces, cheesecake filling, and caramel sauce, repeating layers until used up.
  9. Chill the assembled trifle for at least 2 hours before serving and garnish with chocolate shavings and chopped pecans.

Notes

Ensure brownies are completely cooled before assembling to avoid melting the cheesecake layer. Prepare the trifle a day in advance for enhanced flavors and stress-free serving.
