"This tasty dessert was a hit when I served it to our Bible study group," reports Betty Kleberger of Florissant, Missouri. "It's a wonderful blend of flavors and a great ending to holiday meals." If you don't have leftover gingerbread, bake some from a boxed mix to assemble this trifle.

This is very easy to make and I got great compliments on it. However, I added another box of pudding because using only one box was too skimpy. Also, I added more Heath bar crunch after the second layer of pudding and just sprinkled a little on top of the Cool Whip for decoration.

Served this at my teachers' sorority and it was a huge hit. They were so impressed by the taste and how simple it was to assemble.

My family loves it every Christmas. I always use boxed cake-a delicious and easy dessert.

This was a great recipe. I did use 2 packages of vanilla pudding mix instead of just one and it seemed better. I just wasn't enough. Great flavour, will make it again.

I love this recipe! My entire family absolutely loves gingerbread, however, it has mostly been served around the holiday season only, but this trifle is so good we serve it all year.

Made this for one of my Christmas Day desserts. Was easy to assemble and enjoyed the flavour. Could not find French vanilla pudding though, so used vanilla.
