CHOCOLATE RASPBERRY BROWNIE PARFAITS

Steps:

• Prepare brownies according to directions on box. Bake in a 9x13" pan as directed. Let cool completely. Once cooled, cut into small bite-sized pieces.
• Prepare instant pudding as directed on box.
• Wash raspberries.
• Layer brownies, pudding, and raspberries in glass or plastic cups (remember the plastic cups I used to make Individual Seven Layer Dips? Those cups work perfect for this!).
• I was able to make 8 (8oz) servings, but it just depends how big your cups are and how many layers you put in each cup.
• *I suggest making these and eating them immediately, otherwise the brownies start to get really soft (I thought the soft brownies were yummy, but my husband preferred them to be more fresh and chewy).
