Layer the Trifle
In a trifle dish or individual dessert cups, layer as follows:
Brownie cubes
Mint chocolate pudding
Whipped cream
Repeat until the dish is full, ending with a swirl of whipped cream on top.

Add green sprinkles, mini chocolate chips, Andes mints, or crushed Oreos for extra flair. ✨
🥶 Chill Time
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to let the layers set and the flavors meld.
📌 Tips
Use a clear dish to show off the layers!
Swap in mint Oreos for brownies if you want a crunchier version.
Add a splash of Baileys to the pudding for a boozy twist (adults only 😉).
