Description

Creamy Heaven in a Bowl delivers Italian-inspired comfort straight to dinner tables with rich, luxurious ingredients. Smooth mascarpone and tender pasta combine in a dreamy culinary experience you’ll savor to the last delectable bite.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients:

  • 1 box brownie mix
  • 2 to 3 eggs (as per box instructions)
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil (as per box instructions)
  • 1/3 cup water (as per box instructions)

Instructions

  1. Craft the brownie base following package guidelines, allowing it to cool completely before slicing into delectable bite-sized morsels.
  2. Whip cream cheese and peanut butter until silky smooth, gradually incorporating powdered sugar for a luxurious texture. Gently fold in whipped topping to create an airy, decadent mixture.
  3. Prepare ganache by warming heavy cream and cascading it over chocolate chips. Allow brief resting, then stir until achieving a glossy, velvety consistency. Let cool to room temperature.
  4. Construct the first layer in a transparent serving vessel by arranging half of the brownie cubes as a foundational platform.
  5. Spread a generous portion of the peanut butter cream across the brownie base, creating an even, luscious coating.
  6. Artfully drizzle half of the chocolate ganache and caramel sauce, allowing them to cascade between the layers.
  7. Replicate the layering process with remaining ingredients, building a visually stunning dessert landscape.
  8. Crown the creation with billowy whipped topping and strategically place chopped peanut butter cups for a dramatic garnish.
  9. Refrigerate for minimum 2 hours to allow flavors to harmonize and texture to set perfectly. Serve chilled for optimal enjoyment.

Notes

  • Customize brownie mix by using gluten-free or low-sugar alternatives for dietary restrictions.
  • Ensure cream cheese is at room temperature for smoother blending with peanut butter.
  • Opt for natural peanut butter to reduce added sugars and create a more authentic flavor profile.
