Expert Tips

Chill the mixing bowl and beaters for about 15 minutes in the freezer to get the best volume when whipping cream.

You can make this fabulous crowd-pleasing dessert up to 12 hours ahead of time.

Sprinkle with chopped peanuts instead of the chocolate-covered peanuts.

    I didn't find this kind of cookie mix at the store so I tweaked it a little. I used Rainbow Chip Cookie mix (the regular cookies with mini M&M's) and added a little cocoa to them to darken the cookies. I forgot until I got to the step that the recipe called for a hand mixer. We don't have one so I beat the cream with a couple of forks for awhile. Instead of peanuts I cut up a few bite size Resees and Hershey's. It turned out to be amazing!

    Finding the called for flavor of cookie mix was not easy, but when I finally stumbled on it I made sure to buy some and try this dessert. Not too bad! The cream is absorbed into the cookies to make a GREAT consistency, and the chocolate-covered peanuts make a very nice touch. I found the taste to be a little bland, however, and surprisingly lacking in chocolate flavor. If you prefer to taste 90% peanut butter and 10% chocolate, you'd probably enjoy this, but I tend to prefer it either more equal or with a higher chocolate to peanut butter ratio. Not sure if I'll make it again....

    I made this last year. It was really good even though I messed up on a couple things. It looks nothing like the picture. haha. I am not the best cook though. But it was pretty good and everyone loved it. So I would probably make it again. Not often though. It is pretty rich also. Plus I substituted for chocolate chips spinkled on the top instead. Yum!
