LOCATION

Directions

  • 1 Heat oven to 375°F. In medium bowl, mix nut crunch ingredients. With pastry blender (or pulling 2 table knives through ingredients in opposite directions), cut in butter until crumbly. Stir in walnuts. Spread in ungreased 13x9-inch pan. Bake about 20 minutes or until golden brown. Cool completely, about 30 minutes.
  • 2 Meanwhile, in 3-quart saucepan, heat chocolate chips, marshmallows and milk over low heat, stirring constantly, just until chocolate and marshmallows are melted and mixture is smooth. Refrigerate about 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes, until mixture mounds slightly when dropped from a spoon.
  • 3 In chilled large bowl, beat whipping cream with electric mixer on high speed until stiff. Fold chocolate mixture into whipped cream. Fold 2 cups of the nut crunch into chocolate-cream mixture.
  • 4 In ungreased 13x9-inch pan, spread 1 cup of the nut crunch. Carefully spread chocolate-cream mixture over crunch. Sprinkle with remaining crunch (about 1 cup). Cover; refrigerate until set, at least 8 hours but no longer than 24 hours.

I am searching for a recipe like this, but it was served warm. It has like a pudding bottom and a cake/brownie sort of top...I made it years ago and would like to find the recipe again. It was "chocolate crunch" or "chocolate crisp (like apple crisp)". Does anyone have that recipe?? email: nlee57@hotmail.com Thanks!!!!

it would be helpful to let cooks know that the nut crunch portion of the recipe will be used for three uses in the filling, the crust and as a topping. i would suggest that it be baked in two seperate pans. using one cup pressed into the bottom of the pan and left to cool that way. it is hard to spread filling on a crumbling crust. bake the portion that is going to be recrumbled into the filling and on top in another pan. yes it's an extra pan to wash but the time and nerves it will save will be worth it thanks
