Tuesday Treat: Chocolate Trifle

Happy Valentines Day! Not that I celebrate V-day as it is intended usually. Ha!

Today's Tuesday Treat is for Chocolate Trifle, an easy to make, yummy chocolate treat. Make one for your loved ones tonight! It is that easy.

Ingredients:


1 package brownie mix
1 package instant chocolate pudding
1/2 cup water
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 8oz. container frozen whipped topping (thawed)
1 12oz. container frozen whipped topping (thawed)
1 bar chocolate candy

Directions:

  1. Prepare brownie mix per box directions and cool immediately. Cut into 1 inch sections.
  2. In a large bowl, combine pudding mix, water, and sweetened condensed milk. Mix until smooth then fold in 8 ounces of whipped topping until no streaks remain.
  3. In a glass serving dish, place half of the brownies, half of the pudding mixture, and half of the 12oz. whipped topping. Repeat layers. Shave chocolate on top as a garnish. Refrigerate for 8 hours before serving.


Ideas:

  • Not a fan of chocolate? No problem, substitute caramel, vanilla, butterscotch, etc.
  • Add mint for a seasonal/wintery flare.
  • You can drastically reduce the sugar content of this by getting all sugar free ingredients but it also will reduce the yumminess.
  • Make for your hunny and include a handmade card with a window box planter to get spring flowers started!
