Raspberry Brownie Parfaits

Sometimes, you just gotta cave and give in to your sweet tooth.

The hubster and I don’t have the biggest sweet tooth, but there are a few tried and true favorites that we both love. Especially the hubster.

Have I mentioned that he’s an ice cream fanatic? He went nuts over this No-Churn Salted Caramel Chocolate Chunk Ice Cream and that Funfetti Cake Batter Milkshake. I’ve talked about how we always have a gallon (or three) of ice cream in our freezer due to the hubster’s love for it.

But what I don’t think I’ve mentioned before is that he always loves pudding, specifically chocolate pudding! And lucky for him, I do, too.

Every once in a while, the hubster will whip up a batch of instant pudding for dessert. Yes, I know it’s not fancy or time consuming, but there’s just something about homemade pudding (ok, it’s instant, so not really homemade, but better than the snak-packs!) that tastes oh-so good, especially with a big dollop of whipped cream on top!

And that’s where today’s recipe inspiration came from…pudding!

This dessert was adapted from these Berry Vanilla Pudding Pound Cake Trifles that I created two years ago. But, instead of using pound cake, brownies were swapped in, and of course, some chocolate pudding for the vanilla.

Can you say easy-peasy or what? You know I’m all about the simple recipes around here, and this dessert is one of the easiest treats that I’ve shared. Using store-bought brownies makes these extra quick, but, you could also use homemade brownies, too, of course!

And the chocolate pudding. As we discussed, it’s the instant mix kind, which also makes these pudding parfaits a breeze to whip up. But, to get a little more fancy-ish, the pudding is mixed together with a whipped topping (Cool Whip), which gives it a lighter, fluffier texture.

Now, let’s talk about this decadent flavor combination.

Fresh raspberries, rich brownies, and creamy chocolate pudding. What could be better? The sweet fruit pairs perfectly with the rich chocolate, making it the ultimate party for your tastebuds.

Plus, since you can make these in glasses or jars, it’s perfect for portion control, and for not having to share, either! It also makes an impressively easy dessert for those house guests or party-goers.

So if you’re looking for that chocolatey, fruity, impressive dessert, these brownie parfaits will hit the spot. Perfect for summer or for any other time, this simple treat is sure to be a favorite with everyone!

Prep Time 10 minutes
Total Time 10 minutes
Servings 6 small parfaits or 1 medium trifle

Ingredients

  • 1 (5.85 ounce) box instant chocolate pudding mix
  • 3 cups cold 2% milk
  • 1 (8 ounce) container whipped topping (such as Cool Whip), thawed
  • 6-8 brownies cut into chunks (I used store-bought brownie bites that I found in the bakery section of my grocery store)
  • 2 cups fresh raspberries

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, whisk pudding mix and milk for 2-3 minutes, or until starts to thicken.
  • Gently fold whipped topping into pudding until just combined. Set aside.
  • Spoon about ¼ cup of pudding mixture into the bottom of a glass or small jar. Place about ¼ cup brownie chunks on top of pudding, followed by a layer or raspberries; repeat with another layer in each glass/jar. Repeat with rest of jars. If using a medium trifle dish, repeat the layering process, ending with pudding.
  • Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.

    I've loved pudding forever so these pretty little parfaits are calling my name! Adding chunks of brownies for texture (and more chocolate!) was a great idea, and those fresh raspberries are the perfect topper. I would absolutely love these!
