Ingredients
  

  • 1 4 serving size package instant chocolate pudding
  • 1 cup cold water
  • 1 14 ounce can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 16 ounces Cool Whip thawed
  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened to room temperature
  • 1 8 or 10 pack Twinkies chocolate cake or fudge covered
  • 1 pint blueberries
  • 1 pint strawberries sliced

Instructions
 

  • Begin with the chocolate layer: whisk together pudding mix, cold water and sweetened condensed milk. Refrigerate once done. Use an electric mixer to whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Fold whipped heavy cream into pudding mixture until well mixed and refrigerate until later step.
  • Prepare cream cheese layer: Use an electric mixer to whip cream cheese until it is light and fluffy. Add thawed Cool Whip and whip until light and fluffy.
  • Layer the ingredients in your trifle dish (or dishes if you are making individual serving size trifles). I began with a layer of the pudding, Twinkies (simply break them apart into 1 inch pieces), strawberries/blueberries, cream cheese/cool whip mixture and repeat until you run out of ingredients.
