Cup of Yum
1. If using store-bought brownie mix, prepare brownie mix according to package directions. If making homemade brownies, prepare and bake them following recipe. Allow the brownies to fully cool at room temperature for 20-30 minutes. Once cooled cut into small bite sized cubes (approximately 1"-2" cubes).
2. Prepare the mocha pudding. In a large bowl add the vanilla pudding mix. Per the vanilla pudding mix package directions, add the required milk measurement LESS ¼ cup of milk per package (i.e. 1 package of vanilla pudding mix that serves 4 requires 2 cups of milk, only add 1 ¾ cups of milk). Add in the cooled coffee (if using, or ¼ cup of milk instead). Mix until evenly combined. Set aside.
3. If using Dream Whip, prepare 1 packet according to package directions.

Assemble the Trifle

1. To make individual servings, in 12 ramekins, mugs, small bowls, or mason jars, layer the cubed brownies, toffee bits, mocha pudding and whipped cream (save 3-4 cubed brownies and 1 teaspoon of toffee bits to decorate the top). Depending on the size of the ramekins create 2-3 layers. On top the layer the reserved toffee bits and brownies to garnish.
2. To make one large trifle use a trifle bowl or large bowl. Split the cubed brownies into thirds (save 3-4 cubed brownies for decorating the top). Add the first layer of brownies to the bowl, one third of the toffee bits (save 1 tablespoon for decorating the top), one third of the mocha pudding and one third of the whipped cream. Repeat to create 2 more layers. Decorate the top of the trifle with the reserved brownies and toffee bits.
3. Store the prepared trifle in the fridge until ready to serve. Enjoy!
