This easy-to-assemble dessert can be put together by even the youngest member of your family and still be the hit of the party. Plus, the combination of pumpkin, caramel, and nuts are autumn personified. Remember, though, the better the quality of the ingredients, the better the end result.–Matthew Mead

I came home from work with leftover pumpkin bread and homemade caramel sauce, so I knew I had to make this recipe. This is a simple recipe to put together and it's perfect for fall, when I usually have all the ingredients on hand. I layered these in half-pint canning jars. They're perfect for 2 layers and you can put the lid on to chill in the refrigerator. When I was ready to serve the trifles, I removed the lid and added a dollop of whipped cream and the chopped pecans. The trifles looked as good as they tasted. I think next time I'll make a richer homemade vanilla custard instead of the instant vanilla pudding I used. This might also get me motivated to make my own pumpkin butter so we can have these throughout the year as I almost always have pumpkin bread in the freezer.
