Method
 

Steps to Make Beetlejuice Mini Trifles
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). In a bowl, mix cake ingredients until smooth. Divide, dye one green and another purple with food coloring. Bake for 28-30 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool and cube.
  2. Whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form. In another bowl, beat cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Fold in whipped cream gently to maintain texture.
  3. In serving jars, layer green cake cubes, creamy filling, and Oreo crumbles. Repeat with purple cake until jars are filled.
  4. Top with whole Oreos and sprinkles. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving for flavors to meld.
