"This is a great conversation piece at parties. Adults love it as much as the children do. Get a new garden trowel, medium sized flower pot and artificial flower at a craft store for full effect."
INGREDIENTS:
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 (8 ounce) package cream
cheese, softened
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
2 (3.5 ounce) packages instant
vanilla pudding mix 3 1/2 cups milk
1 (12 ounce) container frozen
whipped topping, thawed
32 ounces chocolate sandwich
cookies with creme filling

DIRECTIONS:
1. Chop cookies very fine in food processor. The white cream will disappear.
2. Mix butter, cream cheese, and sugar in bowl.
3. In a large bowl mix milk, pudding and whipped topping together.
4. Combine pudding mixture and cream mixture together.
5. Layer in flower pot, starting with cookies then cream mixture. Repeat layers.

No...but I have seen it done in a new flower pot and it looks cute!

I am sure in the trifle bowl it would be fine! I doubt it will fill it all of the way up, though. If you were making it for a lot of people, you could always double the recipe!
 
I made a similar version and put it in the trifle bowl. However, mine made less than the recipe above and it just fit in the bowl. If you'd like the smaller recipe, let me know.
