“I cannot believe I finally found this recipe! My grandma would make this for holiday parties when I was a girl — I’d sneak as many as I could without being caught. A true guilty pleasure and my heart is so happy to be able to make it again! 😋”

Chocolate Trifle Dessert

🍫 Ingredients

  • 1 box chocolate cake mix (baked and cooled)
  • 2 boxes (3.9 oz each) instant chocolate pudding mix
  • 4 cups cold milk
  • 1 (16 oz) container whipped topping (Cool Whip), thawed
  • 1 cup crushed toffee bits or chopped candy bars (like Heath or Butterfinger)
  • Caramel sauce (for drizzling, optional)

👩‍🍳 Instructions

  1. Prepare the chocolate pudding by mixing pudding mix with cold milk. Chill for at least 5 minutes until thickened.
  2. Cut the chocolate cake into cubes.
  3. In a large trifle bowl, layer half of the cake cubes, then half of the pudding, followed by half of the whipped topping.
  4. Repeat the layers once more — cake, pudding, and whipped topping.
  5. Top with crushed toffee bits or candy bar pieces and drizzle with caramel sauce if desired.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
  7. Serve chilled and enjoy every creamy, chocolatey bite!
💡 Tip: You can substitute brownies for the cake layer for a richer dessert or add layers of crushed cookies for extra crunch!
