For the Mint Cream Layer:

  • 1 package 3.4 oz instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 2 cups cold milk
  • ½ teaspoon mint extract
  • A few drops of green food coloring
  • 1 cup whipped topping Cool Whip or homemade whipped cream
  • ½ cup chocolate chips or chopped chocolate

For the Whipped Topping:

  • 1 tablespoon powdered sugar optional

For Garnish:

  • Chocolate shavings
  • Mint leaves
  • Green sprinkles
  • Chocolate chips or mini chocolate kisses

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Brownies – Bake and cool brownies completely, then cut into bite-sized cubes.
  • Make the Mint Cream Layer – Whisk vanilla pudding mix with milk until thickened. Stir in mint extract and food coloring, then fold in whipped topping and chocolate chips.
  • Assemble the Trifle – Layer brownie pieces, mint cream, and repeat until the dish is full, finishing with whipped topping.
  • Garnish and Serve – Decorate with chocolate shavings, green sprinkles, and mint leaves. Chill for at least 1 hour before serving.

Notes

  • Use fudge brownies for a richer, chewier texture.
  • For best results, chill overnight before serving.
  • Make it boozy – Add Irish cream to the mint cream for an adult version.
  • Customize colors – Adjust food coloring for a deeper green or themed variation.
