Ingredients
Scale
Brownie Layer
- 1 Box Chocolate Brownie Mix
Pudding Layer
- 1 (5 Ounce) Instant Chocolate Pudding Mix

Topping and Garnish
- 16 Ounces Refrigerated Whipped Topping (remaining 12 ounces)
- 15 Oreos, crushed

Instructions
- Bake Brownies: Preheat your oven and prepare the brownie mix according to the package instructions for an 8×8 inch pan. Bake, then allow to cool completely before cutting into approximately 50-55 small cubes.
- Prepare Pudding: Make the instant chocolate pudding mix as directed on the package. Once ready, gently fold in 4 ounces of the refrigerated whipped topping using a rubber spatula until well combined. Set this mixture aside.
- Assemble Base Layer: In a trifle dish, place half of the brownie cubes evenly at the bottom to form the base layer.
- Add Pudding Layer: Spread half of the chocolate pudding and whipped topping mixture evenly over the brownie cubes.
- Add Oreo Layer: Sprinkle about one third of the crushed Oreos over the pudding layer for a crunchy texture contrast.
- Add Whipped Topping Layer: Add half of the remaining refrigerated whipped topping over the Oreos and spread it out evenly.
- Repeat Layers: Repeat the layering process with the remaining brownie cubes, pudding mixture, and whipped topping.
- Final Toppings: Finish by sprinkling the remaining crushed Oreos on top and drizzle generously with chocolate syrup for added richness.
- Chill: Cover the trifle dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set.
- Serve: Serve chilled and enjoy this indulgent Oreo trifle dessert.
Notes
- You can substitute homemade brownies for the boxed mix for a more personalized flavor.
- Ensure the brownies are completely cooled before cutting to prevent crumbling.
- Use a clear trifle dish to showcase the layered effect beautifully.
- For a dairy-free version, consider using coconut whipped topping and pudding alternatives.
- If you prefer a firmer trifle, increase refrigeration time to 4 hours or overnight.
