25 Day Christmas Countdown
Day 22
Here is a really easy recipe if you need to take a light and airy desert to someone’s Christmas Eve party today.
Ingredients
1 batch of pre-baked brownies
2 large boxes of chocolate pudding
4 cups milk (do not use soy or alternative milks as the pudding doesn’t set properly)
1 large tub whipping cream
Flavored candy of your choice (chocolate chips, peppermint chocolate chips, ground Butterfingers , ground Reese’s peanut butter cups…. anything you want)
Directions
If you haven’t done so already, bake a batch of brownies (I have an easy brownie recipe posted under recipes already if you need one.
Mix the pudding and the milk and chill in the refrigerator. Crumble your cooled brownie.
A large clear bowl works beautifully for this recipe so you can visibly show off your layers.
Begin constructing your trifle. Layer your crumbled brownie, pudding, whip cream, candy, then begin the layers over and over until the bowl is full.
Disclaimer – I do not have my own picture as I have not made this yet, but when I do I will post my picture.

I am a wife, mom, and daughter. I served in the United States Army, went to college, received a Batchelor's Degree in Criminology, homeschooled my daughter every year from start to finish, and now I am currently a daycare teacher's aide (soon to be a two-year-old teacher coming this fall).
I married my husband when he was in the United States Army so I have the unique knowledge of what it is like to be on both sides of a Military uniform.
While we were stationed in Germany, my daughter, who is 24 years old now, was born and I made the difficult decision to put my career on hold to be her mom.
The past 20 years have been wrought with many struggles but as a result of those struggles, this blog was created.
As the years passed and the struggle kept coming, I would say, "I'm not sure why we have to go through all of this, but if we have to then it is my desire to allow my story to serve as a means of encouragement to others so all this pain isn't for nothing."
The years passed and the struggles did not. However, I feel now is the time God wants me to share these stories of hardships with the hopes they provide encouragement to you if you are struggling in the same way. It is my prayer they will serve as a healing opportunity for you.
I want you to know you are not alone. There are others who know where you are and what you are feeling.
Cling to the hope this won't last forever and that God is standing beside you while He holds you up and dries your tears. He is showing you the way, you just need to follow Him.
Big Hugs, Heidi
