Step 2: Make the Chocolate Pudding
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the instant pudding mix and cold milk until smooth.
- Place it in the refrigerator for about 5 minutes to thicken.
Step 3: Prepare the Layers
- Have your whipped topping, pudding, brownies, and candy bits ready.
- Using a clear glass trifle bowl or large serving dish allows the layers to shine beautifully.
Step 4: Assemble the Dessert
- First Layer: Spread half of the brownie chunks evenly at the bottom of the bowl.
- Second Layer: Pour half of the chocolate pudding over the brownies.
- Third Layer: Spread a generous portion of whipped topping.
- Fourth Layer: Sprinkle crushed toffee bits, nuts, or mini chocolate chips.
- Repeat: Continue layering with the remaining brownies, pudding, whipped topping, and finish with a final dusting of candy bits and chocolate chips.
Step 5: Chill Before Serving
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. This allows the flavors to meld and the dessert to set perfectly.
Serving Suggestions
- Serve with a large spoon straight from the bowl, ensuring each portion includes every delicious layer.
- Garnish with extra whipped cream swirls, chocolate shavings, or even a drizzle of caramel sauce for extra indulgence.
