Chocolate Trifle

I've been making this for a few years, but tried something different this time. I read through some of the reviews for this recipe and added caramel and Heath toffee bits into the layering, as someone suggested. It turned out really yummy! It also suggested you use french vanilla cool whip, which I didn't try this time. I did individual servings in a glass just for fun.
