This is delicious. I tried it out on Thanksgiving and everyone loved it. Made it again for a Christmas party, and everyone there loved it as well. Be aware though, this is a very large recipe. If you don't have a large crowd (or if you have a lot of other dessert choices then you will have a lot leftover.
The best way to make this trifle is to make your own whipped cream (don't by cool whip and make the cook & serve pudding. Enjoy!

i made some homemade gingerbread for christmas (great recipe, made with guinness stout but it stuck to the pan and came out in pieces... what to do to salvage it? MAKE THIS TRIFLE. i had planned on having real whipped cream with my gingerbread, so i used that instead of the "frozen whipped topping" and added some chopped crystalized ginger and some brandy. i was skeptical about the pumpkin part, but it was absolutely to die for. and it looked beautiful!

Yep, very easy and yummy. I like pumpkin but you have to loooove you some pumpkin for this one :. My husband happens to love pumpkin so he loved it.
I think next time I will use less pumpkin and more cool whip or pudding to lessen the pumpkin taste and make it more creamy.
