This recipe is super easy and so delicious. I made it one day and took to my brother for his birthday and he loved it and mentioned it often. When one receives a compliment from Matt, you know it's got to be worth it:) So I made it again last night for a family dinner we had (Matt's request)and it was a hit, both with adults and with kids. So here you go!
1 pkg fudge brownie mix (9x13 pan size)
3/4 c. chopped almonds (or pecans, or whatever nut you prefer, really)
Mix brownie according to directions, add nuts. Pour into a greased 9x13" pan and bake at 325 degrees for about 25 minutes (or until done). Let cool.
1 (14oz.) can sweetened condensed milk
2 teaspoons peppermint extract (I like it minty, but you can add less if you want)
4 drops green food coloring (to make it pretty, but you don't have to)
2 cups heavy whipping cream, whipped or an 8 oz tub of cool whip
1/2 cup miniature chocolate chips
Combine the milk, extract and food coloring in a large bowl. Fold in whipped cream and chocolate chips. Spread over brownies. Cover and freeze for SEVERAL hours.
Hot fudge sauce
chopped peanuts (again, whatever nut you prefer)
Drizzle dessert with the hot fudge (warmed)and sprinkle with nuts and enjoy.
*Making this on a hot afternoon I realized just how quickly it melts, so try to cut and eat while it's still mostly frozen. It takes good melted, but is so much more satisfying frozen. Yum.

Oh, my mouth is watering just reading that recipe! Thanks for sharing!
I tried this recipe and it is divine... and I am very sad because it wasn't anything like Willy Wonka's Everlasting Gobstoppers (or whatever they're called), because these brownies are gone now.
