Pumpkin Trifle image

I found this recipe on-line from email I receive from Taste of Home. This is what the author of the recipe states: "It looks so elegant with alternating layers of gingerbread cake and pumpkin/butterscotch pudding," she writes from New London, Missouri. "Try making it ahead of time for a fuss-free dessert when you're planning to entertain guests." Updated 12/2010: I made this for our Christmas dessert and only used 2 boxes (rather than 4 boxes) of the pudding (which works out to be 4 cups of pudding once milk was added and it was more than enough for this trifle dessert).

Time 1h

Yield 18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (14 1/2 ounce) package gingerbread cake mix
1 1/4 cups water
1 egg
4 cups cold nonfat milk
2 (1 ounce) packages sugar-free instant butterscotch pudding mix
1 (15 ounce) can solid-pack pumpkin
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon allspice
1 (12 ounce) carton frozen reduced-fat whipped topping, thawed

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, water and egg, beat on low speed for 30 seconds. Beat on medium for 2 minutes. Pour into an ungreased 8-in. square baking pan.
  • Bake at 350° for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack. When completely cooled, crumble the cake. Set aside 1/4 cup crumbs for garnish.
  • In a large bowl, whisk milk and pudding mixes for 2 minutes or until slightly thickened. Let stand for 2 minutes or until soft-set. Stir in pumpkin and spices until well blended.
  • In a trifle bowl or 3-1/2-qt. glass serving bowl, layer a fourth of the cake crumbs, half of the pumpkin mixture, a fourth of the cake crumbs and half of the whipped topping. Repeat layers. Garnish with reserved cake crumbs. Serve immediately or refrigerate until serving.

The cream cheese frosting in this trifle is a bit too thick for my taste.

I would have liked this trifle more if the pumpkin cake was a bit more moist.

I'm not usually a fan of pumpkin desserts, but this trifle was delicious! The pumpkin cake was moist and flavorful, and the whipped cream and cream cheese frosting were light and fluffy. I loved the combination of flavors and textures.

This pumpkin trifle was a hit at my Thanksgiving dinner! The layers of pumpkin cake, whipped cream, and cream cheese frosting were perfect, and the pumpkin spice flavor was just right. I will definitely be making this again next year.
