3/4 cups graham cracker crumbs
2 Tbsp granulated sugar
3 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted
1 box brownie mix
1/2 cup dry roasted peanuts, chopped
4 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1/3 cup confectioners' sugar
3 Tbsp milk
1 1/2 cups heavy cream, divided
1 Tbsp light corn syrup
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray and line 9 inch baking pan with foil, allowing foil to hang over side. Spray foil. Combine graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter and press into bottom of pan. Bake 5-7 minutes, until golden, allow to cool.

  • 3. With electric mixer, beat cream cheese until smooth. Add peanut butter and confectioners' sugar until just blended (batter will be lumpy). Add milk, beat lightly. In separate bowl, whip 1 cup of the cream and fold gently into the peanut butter mixture. Spread mousse evenly over cooled brownies. Refrigerate 1 hr.
