The Pudding: In a large bowl empty the instant pudding and milk. Whisk for 2 minutes and set aside for pudding to thicken. Beat in cream cheese and vanilla until there are no lumps. Gently fold in 2/3 of the Cool Whip. Candy Canes: Unwrap the candy canes and chop them in a food processor or blender. You will want a semi-fine texture, no big chunks. Assembly: Cut up or crumble the cake. Place 1/3 of the cake on the bottom of a trifle bowl. Top the cake with 1/3 of the pudding mixture. On top of the pudding sprinkle 1/3 of the crushed candy canes. REPEAT THIS PROCESS UNTIL ALL OF THE CAKE, PUDDING AND CANDY CANES ARE USED.
