Best chocolate desert ever

We had this great desert that one of the Mr.'s coworkers make for his birthday and I had to get the recipe.  It has a brownie/cake like base, topped with marshmallow fluff, topped with a peanut butter, chocolate melted and mixed with rice krispies on top of that.  Yes I did say it was amazing, not healthy.  I made it again for Vortex's baptism and it was a hit.  It is very easy to make, it just takes a bit of thinking ahead because some of the layers need a bit of time to set.

Chocolate Marshmallow Brownies

1 cup butter softened
2 cups sugar
4 eggs
6 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa
1 cup all purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1-7oz jar marshmallow fluff
1 cup creamy peanut butter
2 cups (1 12oz pkg) semi sweet chocolate chips
3 cups Rice Krispies

In mixing bowl cream the butter and sugar. Add eggs. Stir in cocoa, flour, vanilla and salt. Spread into a 13x9 inch baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes. When cool, spread the marshmallow onto the brownies.

In a small sauce pan (or in microwave) melt the peanut butter and the chocolate chips. Remove from heat and stir in the Rice Krispies. Spread over the marshmallow layer. Chill before cutting.

 I highly recommend having someone around to help eat these.  They are delicious!
