Chocolate Pumpkin Trifle
Description
This Chocolate Pumpkin Trifle starts with a base of brownies baked from a mix and cooled. A vanilla pudding is prepared by whisking mix with milk, then blended with canned pumpkin, brown sugar, and cinnamon for a smooth textured, pumpkin-flavored custard layer. Whipped cream sweetened with sugar is lightly whipped to soft peaks.
The trifle is assembled by layering brownies and pudding in a dish, with Halloween candy pieces such as Sixlets placed around the edges for decoration. After a second layer of brownies and pudding, the whipped cream is spread on top and accented with candy pearls and gumballs. The dessert is chilled before serving to allow the layers to meld and for the pudding to set properly.
The trifle’s rich chocolate contrasts with the creamy pumpkin filling, while the whipped cream adds lightness. The Halloween candies add both color and a candy crunch for texture. This layered dessert is suitable for festive occasions where a seasonal pumpkin dessert with chocolate is desired.
