This rich dessert made with dark, fudgy brownies smothered in thick, creamy chocolate and pecans will make any chocolate lover beg for more. Ingredients:
1 (19.8-ounce) package fudge brownie mix |
1/2 cup vegetable oil |
1/4 cup water |
2 large eggs |
1 cup (6-ounce package) semisweet chocolate morsels, divided |
2/3 cup milk chocolate morsels |
1 cup whipping cream |
2 tablespoons unsalted butter |
1/3 cup chopped pecans |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |

Directions:
1. Combine first 4 ingredients in a large bowl; beat with a wooden spoon 2 minutes. Stir in 1/3 cup semisweet chocolate morsels. Spread batter into a greased 10-inch springform pan. Bake at 350° for 35 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool completely in pan on a wire rack.

Reduce heat to low; cook until chocolate melts, stirring often. Remove from heat; stir in butter until melted. Stir in pecans and vanilla; pour mixture into a medium bowl. Place bowl in larger bowl filled with ice. Cool mixture, stirring constantly, 6 minutes or until mixture is cool and slightly thickened.
3. Pour chocolate-pecan mixture evenly over cooled brownie layer; cover and chill at least 1 hour.
4. Run a knife around edge of pan, and release sides. Spread Chocolate Mousse evenly over chocolate-pecan layer. Chill 30 minutes before serving. Garnish, if desired. Store in refrigerator.
