Ingredients:
For the brownies:
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup unsalted butter, melted

1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
For the chocolate pudding:
2 cups whole milk
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 large egg yolks
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For assembly:
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup white chocolate chips
1/4 cup crushed chocolate Easter eggs
1/4 cup chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish and set aside.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, melted butter, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, salt, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
3. Add in the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
4. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool completely.
5. While the brownies are cooling, prepare the chocolate pudding. In a medium saucepan, whisk together the milk, sugar, cornstarch, cocoa powder, and salt.
6. In a separate bowl, beat the egg yolks. Gradually add in a small amount of the hot milk mixture, whisking constantly, to temper the eggs.
7. Pour the tempered eggs back into the saucepan with the remaining milk mixture and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the pudding thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
8. Remove from heat and stir in the butter and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
9. To assemble the trifle, cut the cooled brownies into small cubes and place a layer on the bottom of a trifle dish.
10. Next, add a layer of chocolate pudding on top of the brownies.
11. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Spread a layer of whipped cream on top of the pudding.
12. Repeat the layers until all the ingredients are used up, ending with a layer of whipped cream on top.
13. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semisweet and white chocolate chips, stirring every 30 seconds until fully melted.
14. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the top of the trifle.
15. Sprinkle crushed chocolate Easter eggs and chopped nuts over the top for added decoration.
16. Chill the trifle in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving.
