I was so suprised to make this dessert, then to find out how wonderful it is. And, it is so easy to prepare. My friends ate the entire pan of brownies before we even got to the dinner. I had planned to serve them slightly warm with vanilla ice cream.

I made these for work on Wednesday, and they were VERY well received. I used more turtles than were called for in the recipe, but that was the only change I made. Very good, very easy to make.
Turtle Brownie Dessert

Amanda Brown from Manteca, CA

I baked the brownies in a muffin tin, and noticed when I put then out onto a cooling rack(after I placed the candy in the center) they started to fall apart; The top stayed together and the bottom part of the brownie fell though-I think maybe I pressed the candy too far into the brownie-So make sure you don't press them too far when you bake them! But over all they were very chocolately!
Very rich....

joyce ross from dennisport, MA

When I made these, the taste was very good, a little rich. I may have cooked the bottom layer a bit too long, it seemed a little hard for my liking, but everyone seemed to really enjoy them. Give this a try.

Turtle Brownie Dessert

Vicky Benjamin from Depew, NY

I was searching for a homemade german chocolate cake recipe, but only came up with this turtle brownie dessert thru very best bakers; sounds delicous. My husbands birthday is Sunday; so to the store I go to buy some german chocolate and whip up my own ideas for making him a homemade german chocolate cake with homemade coconut pecan icing. Thank you for the recipe but I like baking from scatch; I will use this after I master a german chocolate cake from scratch. Vicky
All I can say is....

YUM YUM YUM. Dangerous to make these more than once a year. They disappear before you know it.
