This recipe and picture was in todays Sun. paper.6/10/12.
"Carmel Brownie Cake" a Smuckers, Crisco & Pillsbury advertisement,recipe.
I have added my twist to it.
Instead of peanuts(some people are allergic to them) .
I substuted crushed salty pretzels...
Salt and chocolate just seem to go together..for a taste bud explosion!
I also changed the marachino cherry for a candied .
I hope you like my version.
