Here is a quick recipe for a Chocolate Pumpkin Trifle, decorated with chocolate candy.
The trifle has layers of rich chocolate brownies and pumpkin flavored pudding topped off with whipped cream, all decorated with Sweetworks Halloween Mix candy. It is a perfect for Halloween fun. Using a boxed brownie mix makes the entire dessert ready in no time at all!
I enjoy making trifles because they are so quick and easy to put together. I made a pumpkin pudding by simply using vanilla pudding and mixing in some canned pumpkin. Then I layered the pudding and brownies, and topped it off with whipped cream and candy. It is a rich dessert, but perfect for a special occasion!
