This is another one of my "I have no idea what I am doing"-creations! All I knew was, I wanted brownies, but also creaminess and a crunch to it.
Nuts were on sale last week, so I bought half the store and decided to put some in my brownies, but that was not enough crunch for me so I made a crust out of rice cereal (please feel free to leave it away). At some point the brownies were in the oven and I started looking around what I had at home to satisfy my cravings for creaminess - Pudding! So I made a quick mousse out of the pudding and whipped cream and since I had made way too much whipped ream, I topped the whole thing with it. That looked kind of odd, so I sprinkled some more nuts and chocolate on top and voila - a flavor and texture explosion in my mouth was created :)
I don't think I will make brownies different anymore. It just simply all fits together so so good! Even tho I would really like to try them on a Graham cracker crust - but then I probably never stop eating them anymore :)
