  1. I love trifles to make for special occasions. This one did not disappoint as it's so deliciously moist and yummy. I actually took this recipe and divided into two dessert bowls. One for DH for Valentines and another for DS and girlfriend. I decided to up the pudding amount and so folded into the CoolWhip a pkg. of sugarfree instant white chocolate that I made along with the devils food instant chocolate in order to get just a bit more pudding mixture for both bowls. Perfect. Thanks for a great recipe and one I'll be making again. Made for 123Hits.~
     
  2. I've made this a couple of times but never with the chocolate cake. First time I used an angel food cake (purchased at the store), sugar-free butterscotch pudding and low-fat cool whip. Second time I used the angel food cake, vanilla pudding mix, butterscotch pudding mix and regular cool whip. I drizzled caramel sauce on the top layer of the cool whip and covered it with the crushed butterfingers. Both times...I only brought home an empty trifle dish and I've just been asked to make it for the big boss' birthday part next week. Love trifles! :)
     
  3. I used sugar free chocolate pudding and cool whip because that's what I had on hand. I took it to bunco for dessert. The ladies all seemed to enjoy it. I loved that it was quick and easy to put together, as I am always in a rush to whip something up after work. This recipe saved the day! Thank you!
     
  4. Wonderful! I used 2 small boxes of chocolate pudding, butter recipe chocolate cake, and lite cool whip. the only issue I had was getting it all to fit in my trifle bowl. I had some cake left over. Brought it to dinner at a friends house and everyone loved it. I loved that it was quick, easy, cheap, and looked impressive. I love to use my trifle bowl to make ordinary occassions a little special. Thanks for posting!
     
  5. This is amazing. Oh my we gobbled it up shamefully. I don't have a nice big trifle bowl, so just made this in one of my mixing bowls. Thanks Kittencal once again your recipe has knocked my socks off. I have asked for a trifle bowl because of this recipe. I will make this again and post a picture when I get it. Made for 1/2/3 hit wonders.
