Instructions

1. Preheat Oven: Heat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

9. Add Whipped Cream: Dollop half of the whipped cream on top of the toffee bits, spreading it evenly.
10. Repeat Layers: Repeat the layering process with the remaining brownie squares, pudding, toffee bits, and whipped cream.
11. Final Touch: Sprinkle the reserved toffee bits on top of the trifle for a decorative touch.
12. Chill: Cover the trifle with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 4 hours to allow the flavors to meld together and the dessert to set.
