Snickers Trifle Bowl {5 Minutes!}

This is probably the most epic 5 minute dessert I’ve ever made.

I always keep extra layers of cake in the freezer.  Always.  And this is one of those times that it has paid off.  Deliciously.  Epically. Decadently.  Honestly, the most stunning 5 Minute Trifle, that literally only took 5 minutes to prepare.

Listen baking friends, I think we’re on to something pretty amazing here.

I love trifle just as much as the next guy, but I’m rethinking the whole layering into one large trifle bowl thing.  I mean, once scooped out, they’ve lost all presentation appeal.  Am I right?  So I think we might have solved that problem, just in time for your next get together, since trifle is so easy to whip up and is the perfect make ahead dessert.  Why not just assemble in some pretty dessert bowls and leave them chilled until you’re ready to serve them?

oh yes, friends, and did I mention that these only take 5 minutes to prepare?  You are most welcome.

Happy week-end everyone!

*yield 5 dessert bowls

• 2 pkgs instant chocolate pudding
• 4 cups of evaporated milk (regular milk works too)
• 1 chocolate cake layer, or store-bought chocolate pound cake, cut into cubes
• 2 Snickers Bars, sliced
• 1 cup chopped peanuts
• whipped topping for garnish

1. Whip the two packages of instant pudding with the evaporated milk for 2 minutes.  Divide among 5 dessert bowls.  Top with cubes of chocolate cake, slices of Snickers Bars, chopped peanuts and a dollop of whipped topping.  Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Notes:

1. Easily change up the trifle flavours.  Switch out for your favourite pudding, chocolate and cake flavours.  Use fruit as a garnish too.
2. Did you know that you can substitute evaporated milk for regular milk in instant pudding?  It mixes up into a very creamy pudding.
