If you love fluffernutters, you'll love these. Using a cake mix and jarred marshmallow fluff makes these quick and easy to put together. These are as rich as a candy bar, so cut into small bars.
INGREDIENTS:
1 stick (8 Tbsp or 1/2 cup) butter, melted but not hot
1 box (18.25 ounces) dark chocolate cake mix
1 (16 ounces) jar marshmallow fluff
1 cup peanut butter, chunky or smooth
PREPARATION:
Preheat oven to 350 F. Line a 9 x 13-inch baking pan with non-stick foil.

In a large bowl, combine cake mix and melted butter with a fork until crumbly.

Remove 3/4 cup and set aside. Spread the remainder of the cake mix crumbles evenly over the bottom of the prepared baking pan.

Remove lid of marshmallow fluff and warm in the microwave on High for 30 seconds. Drop dollops of marshmallow fluff evenly over the cake mix crumbles. Gently smooth marshmallow fluff over the crumbles, without dislodging the bottom layer.

Warm the peanut butter in the microwave 30 seconds on High. Drizzle evenly over the marshmallow layer.

Sprinkle reserved cake mix crumbles over the top of the top layer.

Bake 15 to 20 minutes, until marshmallow pops through and begins to lightly brown.

Cool completely before cutting. These are very rich, like candy bars, so cut them small. Store covered at room temperature.

Yield: 24 to 36 servings, depending on cut size

This recipe uses a packaged brownie mix, peanut butter chips, and sweetened condensed milk. The secret crispy ingredient is potato chips in the frosting. The end result is as rich as a candy bar with a fudgy brownie layer, peanut butter caramel, and crispy chocolate frosting. Cut these small because they are sure to cause sugar shock!

INGREDIENTS:
1 (22-1/2 ounce) package fudge brownie mix
2 eggs, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons water
1 cup peanut butter flavored chips
1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk (NOT evaporated milk)
8 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 Tbsp butter
1 cup finely crushed salted plain thin potato chip crumbs

PREPARATION:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line 13 x 9-inch baking pan with non-stick foil.

In medium bowl, combine brownie mix, eggs, and water; mix well (mixture will be stiff).

Pour into foil-lined pan.

Bake 20 minutes; remove from oven. Sprinkle peanut butter chips evenly over brownie crust. Pour condensed milk evenly over chips.

Return to oven; bake 20 to 25 minutes or until golden. Cool thoroughly.

Melt chocolate chips and butter, mixing together well. Fold in crushed potato chips. Spread evenly over cooled bars. Chill 15 to 20 minutes. Peel down foil and cut into bars. Cut these smaller than you normally would, because they are extremely rich, much like a candy bar.

Yield: 36 bar cookies
