Fudge Brownie Pie

I was sitting here today and I thought to myself . . . I want something scrummy . . . something rich . . . something chocolatey. And then I thought . . . what if I bake my favourite brownies, in a tart pan and then cover them with marshmallows and a fudge frosting . . . I wonder what it would taste like

I have only three words for you.

OH - - - MY - - - GOODNESS!!!

Have you ever eaten anything so incredibly scrummy that the very first bite sent you into spasms of delight . . .

so incredibly moreish that you can't utter any words . . . only sounds . . .

Sounds like . . . . mmmmmm . . . . ooooooohhh . . . . nnnngggghhh . . . .

and in between . . . . only the sounds of your fork hitting the plate . . . again and again????

Imagine a fudgy mouthful of rich moist chocolate brownie . . . stuffed with toasted pecans and then topped with oooey, goooey, sweet marshmallow . . . all smoothed over with a rich chocolate fudge frosting.

Yes . . . this is heaven in every bite. Okay, so this has been a bit more than three words . . . but well, I am sure you'll forgive me.

Now, go make this NOW!

This is one very fabulous dessert that everyone loves. A once in a blue moon treat.  It's not hard to make either.  I promise you that you will fall in love with this simple chocolate dessert.

Here are a few other really delicious desserts that you might also enjoy!

PEAR AND GINGER TRIFLE -  This is a really simple dessert to make. You can increase the numbers or decrease very easily as desired.  You want to use a good store-bought or homemade ginger cake/loaf for this. Layered with tinned pears, Eau de Vie (pear brandy, optional), custard and whipped cream. It doesn't get tastier or easier than this simple dessert. 

SALTED CARAMEL PAVLOVA - I think Pavlova's have to be one of the easiest desserts going! This one is no exception. It is incredibly lush and rich and delicious. With its crisp meringue base with that lovely marshmallow-like insides, topped with billowing whipped cream and topped with a mix of caramel and chocolate drizzles as well as caramelized almonds, this simple dessert elicits oohs and aahs every time I serve it!
