Scale
Brownie Layer:
- 1 box brownie mix (plus ingredients listed on the box)
Peanut Butter Pudding Layer:
- 1 box (3.4 oz) instant vanilla pudding mix
- 2 cups cold milk
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
Whipped Cream & Toppings:
- 1 container (8 oz) Cool Whip, thawed
- 1 cup Reese’s cups, chopped
- 1/4 cup chocolate syrup (optional)
- 1/4 cup peanut butter chips (optional)
Instructions
- Bake the Brownies – Prepare the brownie mix according to package instructions. Let them cool completely, then cut into bite-sized cubes.
- Make the Peanut Butter Pudding – In a bowl, whisk together vanilla pudding mix and cold milk until thickened. Stir in peanut butter until smooth. Refrigerate for 5 minutes.
- Layer the Dessert – In a large trifle dish or glass bowl, layer half of the brownie cubes, followed by half of the peanut butter pudding, and a layer of Cool Whip. Sprinkle half of the chopped Reese’s cups over the top.
- Repeat the Layers – Add another layer of brownies, pudding, and Cool Whip, then top with the remaining Reese’s cups, peanut butter chips, and a drizzle of chocolate syrup.
- Chill & Serve – Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to let the flavors meld. Serve chilled and enjoy!
Notes
- Swap vanilla pudding for chocolate pudding for an extra chocolatey version.
- Use homemade whipped cream instead of Cool Whip for a fresh touch.
- Store leftovers in the fridge for 2-3 days—if they last that long!
- For a crunchy twist, mix in some crushed pretzels between layers.
