Number of Servings: 20

Ingredients

    1 box (1 lb 2.3 oz) Betty Crocker fudge brownie mix
    Water, vegetable oil and eggs called for on brownie mix box
    1 box (4-serving size) chocolate fudge instant pudding and pie filling mix
    2 cups 1% milk
    1/4 cup caramel topping
    1 container (8 oz) low-fat frozen whipped topping, thawed
    1 cup chopped walnuts

Directions

Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Bake brownie mix as directed on box, using water, oil and eggs, in 13x9-inch pan. Cool completely, about 1 hour.

Make pudding mix as directed on box for pudding, using milk; refrigerate.

Cut brownies into 1-inch pieces. Thoroughly stir caramel topping into whipped topping. In 3-quart glass bowl, layer half each of the brownies, pudding, walnuts and whipped topping mixture; repeat.

Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving, but no longer than 24 hours. Store covered in refrigerator.

Garnish with chocolate shavings or chocolate curls. To make the curls, pull a vegetable peeler across a milk chocolate candy bar, using long, thin strokes. (The curls will be easier to make if the chocolate is slightly warm, so let the chocolate stand in a warm place for about 10 minutes.) Use a toothpick to lift the curls from the chocolate to the trifle. Drizzle the whipped topping mixture with additional caramel topping and sprinkle with additional chopped walnuts.

    O.K.
    This cake was a hit. I halved the recipe to two layers and further reduced the sugar (maybe by 20%), which worked great. The result would have been even better, if I hadn't gotten carried away and added mushed banana to the cake butter. The upshot is that the cake was too dense and banana-y (surpris - 2/16/12

    Incredible!
    Thanks! I am preparing this for tonight's Bunko/Birthday celebration for my girlfriends and me. Taking your suggestion and I am using sugar free, fat free everything except the brownies so I won't feel so guilty with this pleasure. - 4/14/09

    Very Good
    You can use sugar free pudding and skim milk which cuts the calories and fat but tastes great - 2/12/09
