Ingredients

Crust:
Pet-Ritz deep dish pie crust
1
chocolate fudge brownie mix (10.25 oz.)
Ingredients for the brownie mix you purchase (i.e. eggs, oil, and butter)
Mousse Filling:
1
small box instant chocolate fudge pudding
2
cups whipping cream
3
oz. cream cheese, softened
Topping:
8
oz. frozen whipped topping, divided
2
oz. cream cheese, softened
2
Tablespoons powdered sugar
1
or 2 of your favorite candy bars, chopped

Directions

Crust:

Place a cookie sheet in the oven and preheat according to the brownie mix directions.

Thoroughly prick the bottom and sides of the pie crust.

Prepare the brownie mix according to the package directions and pour into the pie shell.

Cook according to the brownie directions.

Filling:

In a medium bowl, add the pudding mix, 2 cups whipping cream, and 3 ounces cream cheese (softened until it is almost pourable to prevent clumping).

Beat mixture about one minute or until it has a mousse-like texture and is well mixed.

Spread mousse mixture evenly over the cooled brownie layer.

Topping:

Thaw ¾ of the container of whipped topping.

Beat thawed whipped topping, 2 ounces of cream cheese (almost pourable state to prevent clumping), and 2 tablespoons of powdered sugar.

Spread evenly over the mousse mixture.

Drizzle your favorite chocolate and caramel sauces on the topping.  Chop your favorite candy bar and sprinkle evenly on the topping.

Chill 30 minutes to an hour.  Keep refrigerated.
