My youngest daughter set up traps to catch a leprechaun. She said she wanted his gold or to make him a servant. I said to her I thought your younger brother was your servant. "Yep, he is," she replied. I just don't think he received the memo or he is going to be fired soon.
Since my daughter is setting up traps, I figured I could set up my own trap. I made Pioneer Woman's Knock You Naked Brownies. This way I can catch someone with no green, right? Clever, huh. My husband tried this dessert and he said they are really good even with the nuts since he doesn't eat nuts.
1 box German Chocolate Mix
1 cup pecans, chopped
1 cup evaporated milk
1/2 cup butter, melted
60 whole caramels, unwrapped
1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup powdered sugar
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Grease a 9 x9 or 7.5 x 11 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, mix the cake mix, pecans, 1/3 cup evaporated milk, and the melted butter. Combine well.
- Take half of the batter and press into the baking pan.
- Bake about 8 to 10 minutes.
- Remove and set aside.
- In a microwave safe bowl, microwave the caramels with the remaining evaporated milk for about 2 minutes. Stir and microwave for another 20 seconds if needed until all of the caramels are melted.
- Pour the caramel milk into the baking pan evenly over the pressed brownie base.
- Sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the caramel.
- With the remaining batter in the large bowl, roll out onto a floured surface.
- Place the rolled batter dough on top of the chocolate chips and caramel.
- Bake for 20 to 25 minutes.
- Remove from pan and allow to cool.
- Once the brownies have cooled to room temperature, cover and refrigerate for several hours.
- Before serving, dust with the powdered sugar.

Did you already know....

-You can try to find one by listening to the sound of their hammer while they make shoes.
-Here is a webcam in Ireland to spot a leprechaun.
Good Luck!
