Let me add to my last review by saying, I just knew they had never tested the recipe before the bake-off (and I think this proves it) because if they had, it would have made the finals...

I wrote a similar recipe in to the bake-off years ago and they never mentioned it, yet here is one on the web site, this idea of using cool whip and gelatin with dairy on top of a brownie was never on a Pillsbury product before, i can't help thinking it was taken from my recipe yet they never acknowledged me! I say this because everyone who tasted my dessert (I made it numerous times) couldn't stop eating it, whether at work or at friends' houses. I knew it was a great recipe and a great idea and now Pillsbury is using it, without giving credit! What a racket.
