If you don't have a trifle bowl, what do you use?

Dollar Tree has a bag of plastic champagne glasses.. that would be fun.

I'd go to Target and get myself a Trifle bowl. I have one that I use for banana pudding too. They're not that expensive. I found a second at a thrift store just a couple weeks ago. The base had a little chip in it. $.79.

You bolded a part in my original post about (brownies, cool whip & Reese cups). I guess I don't understand what you don't understand about that part of my post. I'm confused. LOL

Just because I'm the one who said it - because to me a trifle is sponge, fruit, mascerated fruit, custard and cream.

Cool Whip, brownies and candy I wouldn't have called or considered a trifle.

Heh. I dunno, if you do a quick google search for trifle there are tons of recipes that come up for both a traditional trifle and non-traditional trifles, like the one the OP is going to make.

As long as she's not making it with meat (tap-tap, is this thing on?!?!), it is, in fact, a trifle.

But in the UK, a Pudding is a term for dessert, while in the USA, a pudding is a specific kind of dessert. Same with trifle.....actually, the opposite....in the USA, a trifle means a dessert with layers and in the UK, it's a specific dessert. Another one of those language things, I guess!

OP, that sounds yummy. My favorite trifle is brownies, choc pudding, caramel ice cream sauce, cool whip ---- when I make that for parties, it's gone in about 4 minutes flat. Have also done Heath bar, 7-up cake/berries, smore's, etc. Love trifles, they are my "go to" when DH tells me he's got a pot luck at work the next day....at 9pm......
