This really wasn't very good. You need to really, really like gingerbread to enjoy this recipe. It was time consuming to make with having to bake the gingerbread, and totally not worth the effort. It is minimally sweet and just not very tasty. The texture is all pumpkin.

I just made this last night and everyone loved it today! I accidentally started w/ instant vanilla pudding and found that the pumpkin mixture was extremely runny and plain. After reading other reviews that the cook and serve pudding was a must, I made the change and you definitely do need it! The cook and serve pudding made the pumpkin mixture much more creamy and sweet. I added allspice to it as well just to add a little more flavor. I also added carmel ontop of the gingerbread as a few other people had done and everything turned out excellent! I will definitely be making this again.

So I made this for a Thanksgiving meal at the church today. It was a HIT! The only thing that I brought that I had no leftovers to take home. Will definately make this one again.

I made this for last Christmas and I just made it again for Thanksgiving. Everyone LOVES this trifle. I don't think it's too sweet at all. I never go through the extra work to make cook-and-serve pudding. I just use 2 boxes of the instant vanilla pudding. It's a lot easier and tastes better, I think. This year I even drizzled a little caramel sauce over the gingerbread before layering the pumpkin mixture. YUM!

I haven't actually tried it all together yet. I just made it and there was way too much for my traditional trifle bowl. I think one box of the gingerbread is plenty. My pumpkin/pudding was very runny. Possibly because I used nonfat milk when I made the pudding. My presentation will not be the best but I am hoping that it will still taste incredible.

Worried about possible "runniness" of pudding/pumpkin combination, bought both pie filling and pure pumpkin. Libby's pie filling is runny. Ended up with pure pumpkin plus additional spice and sugar to emulate taste of pie filling (already open in can and could compare. Found whole milk should be used for pudding - will not set w/o necessary fat content. Cannot stomach Cool Whip, so used real cream. Previous reviewers said trifle was bland; others stated too sweet. Tasted everything as went along, but know everyone has a different sense of what tastes good. Topped trifle with crushed ginger snaps and toffee-tasting bits from local market - couldn't find pralines or sweetened pecans.

This was easy to make and excellent to eat! Here's a quicker way to make this....instead of making gingerbread, use pumpkin muffins from Dunkin' Donuts (only available around the holidays...they are moist and have a little crunch because of the topping...delicious!

Everyone loves this recipe. I have fixed it for the last 3 years. Sometimes I mix it up by replacing the ginger snaps with Heath pieces. Gives it a little more crunch.
