How To Make Heaven In A Bowl
Step 1
Prepare the brownie batter by following the instructions on the package. Pour the batter into a greased 12×9-inch baking pan.
Step 2
Bake at 350°F for 20–25 minutes. You’ll know they’re ready when a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs.
Step 3
Cool the brownies on a wire rack. Once cooled, slice them into ¾-inch squares. Cut the peanut butter cups in half and set aside for layering.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the pudding mix and milk for about 2 minutes until thickened. Stir in the vanilla extract and peanut butter until smooth, then gently fold in 1½ cups of Cool Whip.
Step 5
In a 5-quart glass trifle dish, layer one-third of the brownie squares. Add a layer of halved peanut butter cups and top with a third of the pudding mixture.
Step 6
Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with the remaining Cool Whip and peanut butter cups on top. Chill in the refrigerator before serving to let the flavors blend perfectly.
