## Ingredients

- 2 packs Ghirardelli brownie mix
- milk or coffee
- vanilla extract
- espresso powder
- 1 block softened cream cheese
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup whipping cream
- 2 cups whipping cream
- 1 box vanilla pudding powder
- 2 cups whipping cream
- 1 vanilla powder
- caramel
- strawberry

## Instructions

1. Prepare the Ghirardelli brownie mix according to box directions, using milk or coffee instead of water, and adding a little vanilla extract and espresso powder (measured with your heart).
2. Set the prepared brownie chunks aside.
3. Mix one block of softened cream cheese and one cup of granulated sugar until smooth.
4. Add a teaspoon of vanilla extract (measured with your heart) to the cream cheese mixture.
5. Add approximately half of one cup of whipping cream to the cream cheese mixture and mix for a bit.
6. Add the remaining whipping cream, scrape the bowl down, and mix again to create the base.
7. Spread this cream cheese base out to ensure the bottom of the pan is covered.
8. Dump half of the brownie chunks mixture on top of the cream cheese base, creating a layer of chopped brownies.
9. Set the pan aside.
10. In the same bowl, mix two cups of whipping cream and one box of vanilla pudding powder (alternatively, use a tub of frozen whipped topping).
11. Do not let the mixture get entirely structured; it should be stabilized but still have a little free movement for spreading.
12. Spread this pudding mixture as the next layer.
13. Add the rest of the brownie pieces as the next layer.
14. Add another two cups of whipping cream and another vanilla powder, mixing without overdoing it to allow for easier spreading.
15. Spread this final layer, pressing down forcefully to compress it into shape.
16. Refrigerate for at least one to two hours before tasting.
17. Refrigerate for a couple more hours before serving to others.
18. Drizzle with caramel or strawberry (or desired topping) and decorate with chocolate or candies if desired.
