With a creamy frosting and crunchy topping, these rich three-layer brownie bars are a decadent treat. âThey're a cinch to assemble, but irresistible,â Annmarie Savage attests from Skowhegan, Maine. âWhenever I make them for someone new, they always want the recipe.â Ingredients:
1 package fudge brownie mix (13-inch x 9-inch pan size) |
1 package (11-1/2 ounces) milk chocolate chips |
1 cup peanut butter |
3 cups crisp rice cereal |
1 can (16 ounces) cream cheese frosting |
1 cup salted peanuts, chopped |
Directions:
1. Prepare and bake brownie mix according to package directions, using a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan. Cool on a wire rack. 2. In a large saucepan, combine chocolate chips and peanut butter. Cook over low heat for 4-5 minutes or until blended, stirring occasionally. Stir in cereal; set aside. 3. Spread frosting over brownies. Sprinkle with peanuts. Spread with peanut butter mixture. Chill for 30 minutes or until set before cutting. Store in the refrigerator. Yield: about 5 dozen. |
