Bless You! But I do need to spend some quality time in that Sandbox ;-)

It’s fascinating the effort people go to decorating cookies & whatnot. I’ve never had the talent for it. But since you mentioned death, here’s how I want to go...
DEATH BY CHOCOLATE
1 Brownie mix
½ cup Kahlua
1 pkg chocolate pudding (regular not instant large size)
1 12-oz container Cool Whip
2 Heath Bars
Chopped Walnuts (optional)
Prepare brownie mix using the recipe for cake-like brownies. While still warm and in the baking pan, poke brownies with a fork. Pour all of the kahlua over the baked brownies.
Prepare chocolate pudding according to instructions and refrigerate until slightly set.
Using a large trifle bowl or salad bowl, use half of the pan of brownies and line the bottom of the bowl. (Do nut crumble them, but try to get pieces as large as possible.) Press lightly up the sides of the bowl. Cover with half of the prepared chocolate pudding, then half of the container of Cool Whip. Sprinkle with 1 chopped Heath bar. Repeat layers with remaining ingredients. Top with the chopped walnuts. Refrigerate.
No decorating required... :-)
