I (shockingly) volunteered to bring dessert to our family festivities, and since I couldn't find a recipe that I was particularly sold on, I decided to improvise with one of my own. And it turned out pretty great! What's even better is that it could be easily adapted to any holiday by using different colored berries, or even using a flavored pudding (or just adding food coloring to a vanilla pudding!)
All-American Trifle
(adapted from a whole bunch of different recipes to create one of my own!)
2 packages instant vanilla pudding
3 cups cold milk
1 container whipped topping
1 pan of brownies, cooled (I just made mine from a box mix)
4 cups assorted fruit (approximately)
In a large bowl, combine the pudding mix, milk, and whipped topping. Whisk to combine. Cut brownies into bite-sized pieces. In a glass bowl (or trifle bowl), layer ingredients, making sure to go all the way to the sides for a pretty presentation. Chill until ready to serve.
Super easy. Since you can't see the bottom of the bowl too clearly, I started with a layer of brownies, then did raspberries and blueberries, topped with the pudding, and repeated. We also served it with additional whipped topping, which I almost think could be mixed into the pudding if you choose. Whatever suits your fancy--which is the beauty of this recipe!
