Brownie Berry Trifle

 Ingredients

  • One box brownie mix, prepared (I am partial to the Hershey or Ghiradelli triple chunk versions so you get big chunks of chocolate surprises in your trifle)
  • Two small boxes of chocolate pudding mix, prepared (You need 8 oz total, so the larger 6 oz box isn't quite enough.  I have even used the sugar free, fat free mix before and it was still delic!)
  • 8 oz container of cool whip (I use light and you can't tell the difference)
  • Frozen or fresh berries (I love the mixed bag of frozen blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries with a few fresh strawberries mixed in.)
Directions

Cut the entire pan of brownies into little bite sized squares and layer in the bottom of your bowl.  Top with pudding, then cool whip, then berries.  Start over with the brownies again and repeat three times.  Voila!  Easy as pie (actually way easier). 

A few notes:
  • If you use frozen berries, they tend to bleed all over the cool whip on top and ruin the presentation.  Rinse the ones for the top layer in a colander first.  They will still bleed, but not nearly as much.  I don't rinse the inside ones because the berry juice soaking into the brownies is what makes it so, so good. :)  
  • Sometimes I do a smaller version of just two layers.  The 6 oz pudding box is perfect for this.

Lemon Brownies


1 Dry Lemon Cake Mix
1 Cube Melted Butter
4 Eggs
1 8oz. Package of Cream Cheese
1 Lb. Powdered Sugar

Directions: Beat cake mix, butter and 2 eggs together.
Put in bottom of 9X13 pan. Mix the cream cheese, the
powdered sugar, and the remaining 2 eggs. Put this mixture
on top of the first (do not mix) and bake at 350 for about 40 minutes.
Do not under cook it. "The secret (which is no longer a secret)
is to cook it long enough so that the edges are a crisp brown and the soft
part in the middle is just cracking."
