Chocolate Trifle

This Chocolate Trifle is fantastic and a cinch to whip up. You'll have to excuse my not so great pictures. (A new camera is on my to do list, as is a residence with better lighting). This dessert looks super impressive in person. I brought it to my a picnic for my husband's school and people practically licked the bowl clean and I got oodles of compliments on how great it looked. Sadly, that day I forgot to take a picture because we were running late. But, I made it again for a presentation my husband did at school and there were no leftovers to be had.

This dessert starts with brownies, and you can use any brownie recipe you like. You want a brownie that isn't super fudgy for this, otherwise you'll have a mouth full of goo while eating this. You want a nice moist cakey brownie for this. Not too dry, not too fudgy is the way to go for this dessert. Then these wonderful brownies are layered amongst fantastic chocolate pudding-based mousse like filling and cool-whip. Yum, Yum, Yum!! Next time I make this, I would really like to try it with homemade whipped cream instead of cool-whip. But don't worry, the cool-whip tastes great in this. Your taste buds will be thank you for making this one.
