Reindeer Crunch Trifle Recipe

Yesterday we shared our recap of the Holiday Open House with Findlay Rowe, but we decided this yummy little concoction deserved a post all on its own. This Reindeer Crunch Trifle is the recipe everyone needs in their lives this holiday season. 

When hosting events with Findlay Rowe, they always give us a challenge to do create something from within the store to present to guests. We love this because it gets our creative juices flowing. That and they have so much cute stuff in that store, it's fun to play with it all when we can't take it all home with us (lest we feared divorce). 

We whipped up this trifle recipe with Poppy Popcorn's Reindeer Crunch in mind. The recipe is right up our alley. It took less than five minutes to make and serve. Not to mention it is oh so yummy.

We've become masters of "faux-made" homemade recipes. We're pretty self-aware and know that our strong suits aren't in the kitchen. But we do like things to be pretty and have an extra special touch. So while we threw every "cheat" we possibly could think of when it came to this dessert - it didn't look or taste like it. 

It's debatable which took longer - to make it or to consume it? 

REINDEER CRUNCH TRIFLE RECIPE

Serves: 10-15

Total Time: 5 Mins

INGREDIENTS

• 8 - 10 pre-made pudding cups
• 1 16 oz pkg of Cool Whip
• 2 cups of Reindeer Crunch popcorn
• 12 pre-made store bought cupcakes

(You're intrigued now aren't you... ;) )

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Scrape off the icing of your store purchased cupcakes. (Consuming optional.)
2. Layer in the bottom of a trifle dish cupcakes and Reindeer Crunch popcorn. 
3. On top of cupcake layer spread out a layer of Cool Whip. 
4. On top of Cool Whip layer spread out a layer of pudding from pudding cups. 
5. Repeat layers until trifle dish is full. 
6. Top with Reindeer Crunch. 
7. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve. 

This qualifies as quite possibly the easiest holiday dessert on the planet. Everything mixes together for the perfect sweet dessert, and over time the popcorn softens to give it just enough crunch and salty to add to all that sweet. 

It was a huge hit at the event. (Thank you all for being our willing taste testers!)

With the busy holidays coming up we know we will have this in rotation again and again. Kids love it. Adults love it. And while we would love to spend all day baking yummy holiday goodies we know that isn't always possible time wise. 

Yummy five minute trifles? Totally doable!
