Dad's Death by Chocolate

In a large trifle bowl, place a thick layer of the Chocolate Pudding, top with a layer of the whipped cream mixture and then sprinkle on half of the cookies and half of the toffee candy. Repeat the process, finishing with the cookies and candy. Cover with plastic wrap. Chill for 2 hours and serve. Chocolate Pudding:Whisk the egg yolks and sugar together in a medium bowl.
