Time 8h50m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups Original Bisquick™ mix
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla
1/4 cup firm butter or margarine
1 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
1 bag (12 oz) semisweet chocolate chips (2 cups)
1 package (10.5 oz) miniature marshmallows (5 1/2 cups)
1/2 cup milk
2 cups whipping cream

Steps:

  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: For the best results, use a good-quality chocolate that has a high cocoa content. This will give your dessert a rich, decadent flavor.
  • Toast the nuts: Toasting the nuts will bring out their flavor and make them more crunchy. You can toast them in a single layer on a baking sheet at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-15 minutes, or until they are fragrant.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make your cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to ensure that your cake is cooked through.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting and keep the cake from getting soggy.
  • Garnish the cake with your favorite toppings: You can garnish the cake with chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or whipped cream.

Conclusion:

This chocolate nut crunch dessert is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of chocolate, nuts, and crunch is sure to please everyone. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
