Easy Chocolate Trifle Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 (18.25 ounce) package brownie mix
• 1 large egg
• 0.75 cup water, divided
• 0.25 cup vegetable oil
• 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
• 1 (3.9 ounce) package instant chocolate pudding mix
• 1 (8 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
• 1 (12 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
• 1 (1.5 ounce) bar chocolate candy

Instructions

1. Gather all of your ingredients to ensure a smooth and efficient baking process.
2. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9-inch square glass baking pan to prevent sticking.
3. In a large bowl, combine the brownie mix, egg, 1/4 cup of water, and vegetable oil. Stir until the mixture is well-blended, approximately 50 strokes, ensuring a smooth batter. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
4. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted 1 inch from the edges comes out clean, typically 25 to 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely, approximately 30 minutes.
5. Once cooled, cut the brownies into 1-inch squares and set them aside for layering.
6. In a large bowl, combine the condensed milk, the remaining 1/2 cup of water, and the pudding mix. Mix until the mixture is smooth and well-combined. Gently fold in 8 ounces of whipped topping until no streaks remain, creating a uniform and creamy texture.
7. In a trifle bowl or glass serving dish, place 1/2 of the brownie squares as the base layer. Top with 1/2 of the pudding mixture, followed by 1/2 of the 12-ounce container of whipped topping. Repeat these layers to create a visually appealing and delicious trifle. For garnish, shave chocolate on top to add an elegant touch.
8. Refrigerate the trifle for at least 8 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld together and the trifle to set properly. Enjoy!
