My kids love this on a hot summer day. I have found it works well also to divide the chocolate fudge topping and use half in step 5 and the other in step 7. You may also add a jar of caramel topping if you desire.

Made this for the 4th of July and it was devoured to say the least! I used 3 frozen snicker bars that I crunched up for the topping instead of peanuts...YUMMO!! Will make this again for sure! Thanks for posting this great and easy recipe!!

    Made this for a dessert that I doubled to feed 30 people. It was a huge hit!!! Things start melting fast once you start unwrapping them...

    I also got this recipe out of Quick Cooking magazine a few years ago and it has quickly become a family favorite! I actually use one layer with the fudge topping and add one layer of carmel topping. Rich and delicious!

    An absolute winner at our 4th of July picnic! I used up a 16oz container of Cool Whip and also split the chocolate sauce in half, adding half in step #5 and the other half in step #7 between the top layers of whipped topping and peanuts, drizzled on. I think this made for a nice presentation, as well. I wanted to add some stemmed maraschino cherries to the top but didn't have enough on hand. This is also a great recipe to make ahead of time and could easily be pulled out of the freezer if you get "emergency company"; also great to have in the freezer for a quick summer snack or dessert for those busy weeknights. Great recipe! Everyone loved it and got many requests for this recipe from the picnic guests as everyone could not believe how easy it was when I told them. A recipe that I'll definitly make many times over.
