Death by Chocolate? Don't mind if I do.

Today, I was making one of my super-easy, delicious and pretty summer desserts and thought, why not share the recipe with all 40 people who read this blog on occasion?!  I was especially excited to make this because I finally have my own trifle dish (bought it at Target for $11!) and don't have to borrow one to make this anymore.  I love trifles.  They make desserts extra pretty.  That is until you serve it up and it turns into mush.  But that's OK because then they still taste pretty darn good.



DEATH BY CHOCOLATE

Ingredients:
1 box of Devil's Food Cake Mix (plus, all ingredients to make the cake)
1 16 oz. container of frozen whipped topping, such as Cool Whip, thawed
1 box of Chocolate Mousse Mix (plus, ingredients to make the mousse)
1 bar of chocolate covered English toffee, such as Heath Bar, crushed

Bake cake according to package instructions and let cool, cut into small cubes.  Prepare mousse according to package instructions and refrigerate.  In a trifle dish or glass serving bowl, layer cubes of chocolate cake, followed by mousse, then Cool Whip.  Repeat.  Top with crushed Heath Bar (we prefer semi-sweet chocolate shavings rather than candy).  Refrigerate until serving.
