Heaven In A Bowl
This decadent Peanut Butter Brownie Trifle layers fudgy brownies, creamy peanut butter pudding, Reese’s cups, and fluffy Cool Whip. Perfect for parties or a special dessert, this treat is as indulgent as it sounds!
Ingredients
- 1 package fudge brownie mix
- 2 packages miniature Reese’s cups cut in half
- 4 cups cold milk preferably 2%
- 2 packages instant vanilla pudding
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 4 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cans Cool Whip thawed, 8 oz each
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Butter a 12x9-inch baking pan. Prepare the brownie batter according to package instructions, then pour into the pan and bake for 20-25 minutes until a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs. Cool completely, then cut into 3/4-inch slices.
- Cut each miniature Reese’s peanut butter cup in half and set aside to be used in the layers and as garnish.
- In a large bowl, beat the instant vanilla pudding mix with cold milk for about 2 minutes until thick and creamy. Blend in peanut butter and vanilla extract until smooth, then fold in 1 1/2 cups of Cool Whip.
- In a 5-quart trifle dish, layer one-third of the brownies at the bottom. Top with one-third of the pudding mixture, then sprinkle half of the halved Reese’s cups. Repeat layering with another third of brownies, another third of pudding, and the remaining half of Reese’s cups. For the top layer, add the last third of brownies and pudding, smoothing out the top.
- Top with remaining Cool Whip, then sprinkle with the remaining halved Reese’s cups. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to set.
Notes
This trifle can be made up to one day ahead and stored in the refrigerator. Serve it chilled, and enjoy with additional toppings like whipped cream or a drizzle of chocolate sauce for extra indulgence.
