Expert Tips

Bake the brownies a week or two ahead of time. Cover and freeze until the day you want to make the dessert. Thaw to room temperature (about 1 hour), and continue with step 2.

Chill the bowl and beaters about 20 minutes in the refrigerator before whipping chilled cream. Beat the cream only until stiff. Overbeating or beating on low speed instead of on high can cause the cream to separate into fat and liquid.

No chocolate topping? Place 2 tablespoons chocolate chips and 1/2 teaspoon shortening in a microwavable bowl. Heat on High 30 to 45 seconds; stir. Drizzle over frosting.

I made these brownies over winter break, and they were completely delicious. However, I did not follow the directions exactly; I substituted Joy of Cooking recipes in place of brownie mix and pre-packaged fudge sauce. The cherry marshmallow cream never fully hardened, and I ended up storing the brownies in the freezer as opposed to the refrigerator, because the cream would have melted. THE GOOD: These brownies were the best I have ever made. THE BAD: It took an extremely long time to make, including clean up of all the equipment. By the time I was done it was around midnight. You should definitely try this recipe, but only if you are prepared to dedicate yourself to a few hours of cooking.
