Chocolate Toffee Trifle

Man it's been forever since I blogged something yummy! Life has been busy and it is only going to get busier in the next couple of weeks. We have had a wonderful holiday season and are anxiously awaiting the arrival of our new little one, hopefully anytime after Christmas.
I made this yummy trifle last night for a family dinner. It was a hit!

Chocolate Toffee Trifle
1 devil's food cake mix, plus ingredients to make the cake
1 large box instant chocolate pudding
3 cups milk
1 (8oz) bag toffee pieces
1 (12oz) container cool whip, thawed
Hershey's syrup

Bake cake according to package directions. Let it cool completely. While your cake is cooling, beat the pudding and milk together until thick.
Chop up your cake into bite size pieces. Sprinkle 1/3 of your cake pieces into bottom of trifle dish. Spread 1/3 of the pudding over the top of the cake. Sprinkle 1/3 of the toffee pieces over the pudding. Spread 1/3 of cool whip over toffee. Drizzle some hershey's syrup over the top.
Repeat the layers twice more.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, and up to 12 hours.
