Step-by-Step Instructions

  2. In a medium bowl, combine the white chocolate pudding mix with 2 cups of cold milk, whisking until thickened, about 2 minutes. Fold in Cool Whip and green food coloring for the mousse.
  3. Layer the trifle starting with the pudding mixture, followed by chocolate cake cubes, then crushed Oreos, and gummy worms.
  4. Repeat the layering process two more times ensuring vibrant layers throughout.
  5. For a final touch, top with remaining pudding mixture and sprinkle with crushed Oreos and gummy worms.
  6. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2-4 hours before serving.

Notes

Using clear dishes showcases the vibrant layers. Opt for instant pudding for the right texture. To avoid sogginess, layer separately until serving. Adjust food coloring for fun themes.
