Directions
{{model.addEditText}} Print- Prepare gingerbread cake mix and bake according to package directions (any size pan). Cool completely.
- Place the pudding mix in a large bowl. Pour in the eggnog and whisk for about 2 minutes. Refrigerate pudding until the gingerbread cake is cool and you are ready to assemble the trifle.
- In a large bowl, whip cream until stiff peaks are just about to form. Beat in sugar and vanilla until peaks form.
- Crumble 1/2 of the gingerbread into the bottom of a trifle bowl or a large glass bowl. Spread 1/2 of the eggnog pudding over the gingerbread, then spread 1/2 of the whipped cream on top of the pudding. Repeat the layers with the remaining gingerbread, pudding, and whipped cream. Refrigerate 6 hours or overnight. Sprinkle the top with the cranberries and cookie crumbs before serving.
Footnotes
- Cook's Notes:
- You can use already made whipped cream, but I prefer to flavor my whipped cream myself. You can substitute bourbon for the vanilla extract in the whipped cream if you like.
- If you use low-fat eggnog for the pudding, your pudding will be loose.

I used light eggnog and Cool Whip for this and we absolutely loved it! I also garnished this with a row of gingersnap cookies around the edge right before serving. It looked really pretty, plu...
AMAZING!!!!! I followed others suggestions and I added molasses and ginger to a spice cake mix and then I added cinnamon and nutmeg to the whipped cream. So very, very good and so perfect for ...
This was good but the eggnog was a little overpowering. I think next time I make it I will use half eggnog and half milk for the pudding.
Ginger bread lovers get ready for a great treat. Made a trial run this morning. Will serve this New Years Eve. Deffinately try this.
This recipe is excellent! I made this for a holiday potluck and took home Best Dessert prize! I tweaked the recipe a bit, instead of using dried cranberries to add color and offset the sweet...
This is REALLY very, very tasty. I brought an empty bowl home from the company Christmas party. I love the eggnog pudding, and next time I might double the pudding part because it was so good.
LOVED this! I made it for Christmas Day and those who liked it REALLY liked it. The eggnog is such a great creamy contrast to the spicy gingerbread. I didn't use the cranberries or cookie cru...
