triple treat pie

How To Make triple treat pie

• Step 1
  Preheat oven to 350* Prepare a 9" pie plate or springform pan with food release spray. Set aside.
• Step 2
  Combine melted butter, brownie mix, and egg, until just combined.
• Step 3
  Spread the brownie mixture into the prepared pan. Bake 15-20 minutes -- do not overbake. Remove from the oven and allow to cool 20 minutes.
• Step 4
  After 20 minutes, with buttered fingers, press the soft brownie gently and evenly along the bottom and up the side of the pan, to form a crust. Cool completely.
• Step 5
  While the crust is cooling, crush 6 candy bars.
• Step 6
  In a medium mixing bowl beat the softened cream cheese until fluffy and smooth. Fold in the whipped topping, then the crushed candy.
• Step 7
  Pour the filling into the cooled crust. Refrigerate at least 2-4 hours until completely chilled.
• Step 8
  Garnish with the remaining candy bar, if you wish, and/or a chocolate drizzle. Serve with pride! However you make it, this is a deliciously decadent dessert. NOTES: 1) You may use any candy bar you wish! 2) I'm a chocoholic, so I used chocolate cool whip, but plain or another flavor would work just as well -- whatever would pair well with your candy choice. 3) You could make this dessert elegant by making individual servings in ramekins. Or you could serve buffet-style bites by baking the brownie in small muffin cups (my deMarle pans work perfectly for this) and filling them individually. Don't forget to reduce the baking time a little. 4) Instead of brownie mix for the crust, you may like to try refrigerated cookie dough. 5) For a cool Summer treat, this pie could be served frozen. Just allow a few minutes on the counter before serving.
