Layered Brownie Dessert

A decadent and simple dessert made with brownies, whipped topping, chocolate frosting and caramel sauce!

I wasn’t sure if this qualified as a “cake” or as “brownies”. It’s a brownie mix, but, it’s baked in two cake pans. It was a conundrum . 🤔

So, I simply called it a “dessert”. But, whatever you want to call it…..it is delicious.

What Ingredients are Needed?

• Brownie mix + ingredients called for on the box.
• Whipped topping ( ex: Cool Whip/Tru Whip)
• Chocolate frosting
• Caramel sauce

Brownie Mix: Any brand of brownie mix can be used or your favorite homemade recipe. However, it will need to be a recipe/box that normally fills a 13 x 9 pan.

Whipped Topping: Again, any brand is OK. You can also go with any variety ( ex: low fat, fat free, etc)

Chocolate Frosting: I used a standard 16 oz container of store bought chocolate frosting. Go with your favorite!

Caramel Sauce: Store bought or make it homemade.

What are The Layers?

• First Layer: Brownie
• Second Layer: Chocolate frosting
• Third Layer: Whipped topping
• Fourth Layer: Brownie
• Fifth Layer: More chocolate frosting
• Final Layer: Caramel sauce

A few things to note:

• Be sure to let your brownie layers cool completely before building your dessert.
• Start with smaller portions…it’s a whole lotta dessert!
