Step-by-Step Instructions for Easter Trifle Dessert
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare the cake mix according to package instructions. Divide the batter into four bowls, adding different pastel food colorings to each. Bake for 25–30 minutes. Allow the cakes to cool completely before cutting into cubes.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the instant pudding mix and 4 cups of milk for about 2-3 minutes until thickened. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to set.
  3. Layer the trifle in a clear glass bowl, starting with cake cubes, followed by pudding, and then whipped topping. Repeat until ingredients are used up.
  4. Decorate with mini chocolate eggs, sprinkles, and edible flowers for a festive touch.
  5. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least one hour before serving.
