Fudgy Brownie Trifle

Ingredients:
1 package (1lb 2.3oz) Betty Crocker fudge brownie mix
2/3 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon instant coffee granules or crystals
2 eggs
1 box (4-serving size) chocolate fudge instant pudding and pie filling mix
2 cups cold milk
1 bag (8 oz) toffee bits
1 container (8 oz) frozen whipped topping, thawed

Heat oven to 350ºF. Grease bottom only of 13x9-inch pan. In medium bowl, stir brownie mix, oil, water, coffee granules and eggs until well blended. Spread in pan, I used my medium bar pan from Pampered Chef.

Bake 28 to 30 minutes or until toothpick inserted 2 inches from side of pan comes out clean or almost clean. Cool completely, about 1 hour.

Cut brownies into 1-inch squares. Place half of the squares in bottom of trifel bowl. Make pudding mix as directed on box for pudding, using milk. Pour half of the pudding over brownies in bowl. Top with half each of the toffee bits and whipped topping. Repeat with remaining brownies, pudding, toffee bits and whipped topping.

Cover; refrigerate at least 4 hours before serving. Store covered in refrigerator.

Do-Ahead Tip
This chocolate pleaser can be made up to 24 hours ahead of time. You also can bake the brownies and freeze them tightly covered up to 2 months.

Special Touch
This fabulous crowd-pleasing dessert is extra-special when garnished with chocolate curls or chocolate leaves.

I even made Jerome a mini trifle.
