How many snickers bars?

Heart of Darkness Brownies...
this is what i was eating all day Sunday...
{my jeans will not zip up today....i am sure each brownie has 1000 calories}
each were made with love by my sweet daughter Syd...
this is her new baking book...STICKY, CHEWY, MESSY, GOOEY
and believe me it DOES live up to it's name....
i am still cleaning up bits of gooey camel and messy chocolate from my walls and floors...

this is the first recipe in the book ....
she has informed us all that she is starting at the beginning and making each yummy treat in order until she has made every last one....
130 treats in total..
so i am expecting to be gaining a little weight real soon..
{she would be devastate if i didn't taste each one}
these brownies contain....{are you sitting down!!}
chocolate squares
pecans
chocolate chips
snickers candy bars{5 full bars...yes 5..it is not a typo}
3 cups of marshmallows
25 caramel candies
heavy cream
you have to have one serious sweet tooth to get through these!!!
{i will be on my exercise bike all week}
