Chocolate Pumpkin Trifle - layers of chocolate brownies with pumpkin pudding all topped off with candy - a perfect Halloween dessert

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!

  1. I love nerds because they are classic and come in so many great forms. I don’t know if they still make them, but I used to always get nerd ropes, those were awesome, it was a taffy with a bunch of nerds covering it.

    I love the sixlets because they come in so many colors and can work for any event. We recently used the white ones as oyster pearls for my daughter’s mermaid party.

  5. All of your creations look awesome. I’d get the sixlets because those are my husband’s favorite. They taste a little different than M&Ms too, like they are less sickeningly sweet, and I like that.
