Ingredients

Scale
Brownie Layer:
  • 1 box brownie mix (plus ingredients listed on the box)
  • 1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract (optional)
Pudding Layer:
  • 2 (3.4 oz) boxes instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 3 cups cold milk
  • Green food coloring (as needed)
Whipped Cream Layer:
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 3 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Garnishes:
  • Crushed Oreos
  • Green sprinkles
  • Chocolate shavings
  • Mini chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Bake the Brownies – Prepare brownie mix as per package instructions. Let cool completely, then cut into small cubes.
  • Prepare the Pudding – Whisk instant vanilla pudding with cold milk. Stir in green food coloring until desired shade is reached. Let set for 5 minutes.
  • Make the Whipped Cream – Beat heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
  • Assemble the Trifle – In a trifle dish, layer half the brownie cubes, followed by half the pudding, and half the whipped cream. Repeat layers.
  • Add Garnishes – Sprinkle with crushed Oreos, chocolate shavings, mini chocolate chips, and green sprinkles.
  • Chill and Serve – Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving for the best texture.

Notes

Let the brownies cool completely before cutting to avoid crumbling. Chill the trifle for a few hours for better layers. Use store-bought whipped topping for a quicker version.
