Notes
Pro Tips: For the best results, assemble this trifle at least 4 hours ahead, or up to a day in advance so the flavors can meld and the brownies can soften perfectly. Use gel food coloring for the most vibrant green color without thinning the pudding. To avoid a soggy trifle, ensure your brownies are completely cool before cutting them into cubes and layering.
