These were sooo yummy!! I made a few changes to the recipe, and they turned out great. I added a lot more peanut butter to the icing mixture, and instead of just plain "minature candy-coated chocolate baking bits" (m&ms) I used peanut butter m&ms. I also crushed up the m&ms before sprinkling them over the top of the brownies--which made them easier to cut and eat!
