I cannot find the exact recipe but here's a close version. The one I did had chocolate cake instead of brownie and also drizzled caramel and chocolate ice cream topping on top of the layers!

INGREDIENTS
1 (19.8 ounce) package brownie mix
2 (3.9 ounce) packages instant chocolate pudding mix
1 (16 ounce) package frozen whipped topping, thawed
3 (1.4 ounce) bars chocolate covered English toffee
DIRECTIONS
Prepare brownies according to package directions. Let cool.
Mix pudding according to package directions.
In a glass punch bowl, layer in the following order: 1/2 of the brownie, crumbled; 1/2 of the pudding; 1 toffee bar, crushed; 1/2 of the whipped topping.
Repeat layers in the same order. Save the last toffee bar to crumble and sprinkle on top before serving.
Refrigerate
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What ingredients are needed for the Favorite Chocolate Trifle Without Coffee Flavoring?

The main ingredients for the Favorite Chocolate Trifle Without Coffee Flavoring include chocolate cake (store-bought or homemade), chocolate pudding, whipped cream, and chocolate shavings or sprinkles for garnish. You can also add layers of fruit like strawberries or raspberries for added flavor and texture.

How do I prepare the chocolate cake for the trifle?

If you're using a store-bought chocolate cake, simply follow the package instructions for baking. If you're making it from scratch, bake the cake according to your favorite recipe, allowing it to cool completely before cutting it into cubes for layering in the trifle.

Can I use a different type of pudding in the trifle?

Yes, you can substitute the chocolate pudding with other flavors such as vanilla or butterscotch, depending on your preference. Just keep in mind that this will change the overall flavor profile of the trifle.

How should I layer the ingredients in the trifle dish?

Start by placing a layer of chocolate cake cubes at the bottom of the trifle dish. Next, add a layer of chocolate pudding, followed by a layer of whipped cream. Repeat the layers until you reach the top of the dish, finishing with a layer of whipped cream and garnishing with chocolate shavings or sprinkles.

How long can I store the chocolate trifle before serving?

You can prepare the chocolate trifle a few hours in advance and store it in the refrigerator. It’s best to serve it within 24 hours for optimal freshness, as the cake may become soggy if left too long. Cover it with plastic wrap to keep it fresh until serving.
