Description

This death by chocolate trifle recipe is easy to make with prepared brownie mix and instant pudding for a pleasing chocolate-upon-chocolate dessert!

Ingredients

1 (18 2/5 ounce) package brownie mix (such as Betty Crocker®)
2 large eggs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3 tablespoons water
4 cups milk
2 (3 9/10 ounce) packages instant chocolate pudding mix
3 (1 2/5 ounce) bars chocolate covered English toffee
1 (16 ounce) package frozen whipped topping, thawed

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
2 To make the brownies: Combine brownie mix, eggs, vegetable oil, and water in a large bowl. Mix with a wooden spoon until well blended. Spread into the prepared baking pan.
3 Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted 2 inches from the side of the pan comes out clean, around 21 to 25 minutes. Let cool completely.
4 Meanwhile, prepare the pudding: Whisk milk and pudding mix together in a large bowl until smooth; set aside.
5 To assemble: Crumble 1/2 of the brownies on the bottom of a glass punch or trifle bowl; spoon 1/2 of the pudding on top. Crush 1 toffee bar over pudding and top with 1/2 of the whipped topping. Repeat layers in the same order, then refrigerate until ready to serve, saving the last toffee bar to crumble and sprinkle on top before serving.
