Chocolate Brownie Trifle

Are you looking for a yummy and easy to make desert for a family get together? 

We all know what the next big holiday is that is coming up..... MOTHER'S DAY! And if your family is like my family, they look for any reason to get together. This year we are having a cook out here at our house and having members from all sides coming. This is a pretty big deal since my husbands parents are divorced and both remarried. We are very lucky that they are able to get along and come to events and be in the same room. There aren't a lot of divorced couples that are able to do that. We do split most holidays, like Thanksgiving and Christmas, but some of the smaller ones we sometimes do together. 

So here is a easy to make desert that will be a BIG hit! It has pretty much become a staple at all our family functions. I found it in a Southern Living Cookbook, and it is sooooooo easy to make!

Chocolate Brownie Trifle



Ingeredents:
* 1 box of brownie mix. (Make sure you get the mix made for a 13x9 pan)
* 2 tubs of whip cream or 1 big tub
* 1 - 2 boxes of chocolate pudding
* 1 bag of chopped up Heath Bars (you can find this in the baking section. There is the chocolate covered kind and then the plain kind. I prefer to use the chocolate covered, but if you can't find it you can use the other. Or you could get 5 of the candy bars and chop them yourself, but that and kind of be expensive.)

You will want to make this the day before. It needs time to set in the fridge.


1. Bake the brownies according to the package and let cool completely.
2. Make the pudding according to the directions and stick it in the fridge to set. This is good to do while the brownies are cooking and cooling.
3. Once everything is cooled and set, you can start to put it together. You will layer is brownie first, then pudding, then the heath bars bits, finally the whipped cream. Continue to layer until the bowl is full. 
4. Top the last layer of whip cream with some heath bar to make it look pretty and then cover and stick in the fridge. I recommend keeping it in the fridge until you are ready to serve it.

It is super yummy and super easy! I hope you enjoy!
