Okay, so I really think that this recipe should be called Chocolate Chip Cookie Trifle, since that's the main ingredient; but, I didn't invent the recipe, so I guess we'll have to go with its true title.
A few years ago, back when we lived in North Carolina, we attended a church with lots of big, homeschooling families. Every Sunday night after some singing and a service, we had a little fellowship potluck dinner. It was loads of fun and gave me plenty of opportunity to try out fun dessert recipes. I especially loved making trifles.
It was exciting to make a new trifle recipe after nearly six years. Here is the finished result!
Okay, the great thing about this recipe is that there are very few ingredients. And you can make them even fewer by purchasing a roll of Toll House Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough.
2 packages of instant vanilla pudding mix (about 8 oz. total)
2 cups of milk
2 tubs of Cool Whip (16 oz. total)
Fresh strawberries, sliced (16 0z.)
1 roll of Toll House Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough (or make your own :-)
Begin by dividing the cookie dough into roughly sixteen cookies. Bake at 350 degrees for 8-9 minutes (this will vary, depending on your oven).
While the cookies are baking, combine vanilla pudding and milk, whisking for 2 minutes. Fold in the Cool Whip.
After allowing the cookies to cool, crumble eight of them. Place 3/4 of the crumbs on the bottom of your trifle dish. Next, layer 1/3 of the pudding mix. Add 3/4 of the sliced strawberries. Carefully position the remaining cookies around the edge of the trifle dish, placing them face outward. Add the rest of the pudding. Garnish with remaining cookie crumbs and strawberries.
This dessert is easy to make, but will look like you spent hours working on it! Enjoy making it beautiful.
