I don't really remember where I got this recipe, but I've only made it a couple times in the last 10 years. Then last year for her birthday, Rebekah requested it. She's not a big cake fan, and certainly not a frosting fan, so I made this to try something different. Everyone loved it. Including Wyatt, who also is not a big fan of cake. This year for his birthday, he really wrestled between the trifle, chocolate fondue, and red velvet cake (which I made for him last year). He finally settled on the trifle. Hopefully you All enjoy it as much as we do!
Chocolate Trifle
1 Package (18-1/4 ounces) chocolate fudge cake mix
1 package (6 oz) instant chocolate pudding mix
1 carton (12 ounces) frozen whipped topping, thawed
6 heath bars (1.4 ounces each), crushed
Bake cake according to package directions. Cool.
Prepare pudding according to package directions. Set aside.
Crumble cake; reserve 1/2 cup. Place half of the remaining cake crumbs in the bottom of a 4 1/2 or 5 quart trifle dish or decorative glass bowl. Layer with half of the pudding, half of the whipped topping, and half of the crushed candy bars. Repeat the layers of cake, pudding and whipped topping. Combine remaining crushed candy bars with reserved cake crumbs. Sprinkle over top. Refrigerate 4-5 hours before serving.
Serves 8-10
