Almond Joy Inspired Trifle in Mason Jars – Perfect Individual Desserts

I have been on a coconut kick the past few weeks. I have been eating it with my yogurt in the morning and wanted to try a new recipe out that used the coconut flavors. I love the combination of chocolate, almonds and coconut together so I tried to come up with an individual dessert that looked and tasted great too! I think I may have created a winner! Here is my Almond Joy Inspired Trifle.
