Honey fries the turkey.

Mama makes the congealed salad.

And me? I’m making an Easy Thanksgiving Dessert that is going to WOW the entire clan this year!

It’s a Pumpkin Pie Trifle made from delicious Kraft items from the Holiday Bake Center at Walmart. The best part is it takes less than 30 minutes to create this easy dessert!

The holidays can get a wee bit stressful. Who am I kidding? We all know we’re going to be running around like crazy mamas fussing about “brush your hair” and “put on your shoes” on Thanksgiving day!

So I am all about simple, budget friendly desserts that tastes as good as they look.

Instead spending money and time worrying over a made from scratch pumpkin pie, I headed straight to the Holiday Baking Center at Walmart to choose quick and easy items to make my Pumpkin Pie Trifle. Having all of the baking goodies are gathered in one spot makes shopping for Thanksgiving so easy!

Vanilla pudding has always been a favorite. Now we are adding the Kraft’s Pudding Spice Pudding to our “most loved” list. It tastes just like homemade pumpkin pie!

Our family loved the creamy little Caramel Bits so much that I added a small dish of them to the table. That way we could add as many yummy little pieces as we liked!

      Individual desserts are so fun to make and everyone loves feeling it was specially made for them. Our family loved this pumpkin pie trifle for Sunday afternoon dessert!

    This looks delish. I’ve been wondering about that flavor Jello pudding. Good to hear an opinion.
