Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Prepare your chocolate cake mix according to the package instructions. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 25-30 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the instant chocolate pudding mix and cold milk until the mixture thickens, which should take about 2 minutes.
  3. In a large trifle bowl, add half of the chocolate cake cubes to the bottom. Spoon in half of the thickened chocolate pudding, followed by half of the whipped topping, and sprinkle half of the crushed toffee bits on top. Repeat this layering process one more time.
  4. Cover the assembled trifle with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld beautifully.
