Ingredient list

2 pkg. (4 oz. each) unsweetened baking chocolate, divided
¾ cup butter or margarine
2 cups granulated sugar
3 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
1 cup flour
1 Tbsp. decorating gel
24 NUTTER BUTTER Cookies (peanut shape)
1 tub (8 oz.) frozen whipped topping (Do not thaw.)
1 cup powdered sugar
½ cup flaked coconut, tinted green

Directions

Heat oven to 350°F.

Line 13x9-inch pan with foil, with ends of foil extending over sides; spray with cooking spray. Microwave 4 oz. chocolate and butter in large microwaveable bowl on HIGH 1-1/2 to 2 min. or until butter is melted; stir until chocolate is completely melted. Stir in granulated sugar. Blend in eggs and vanilla. Add flour; mix well. Spread onto bottom of prepared pan.

Bake 30 to 35 min. or until toothpick inserted in center comes out with fudgy crumbs. (Do not overbake.) Cool completely in pan. Meanwhile, use decorating gel to decorate cookies to resemble gravestones.

Microwave remaining chocolate and whipped topping in microwaveable bowl on HIGH 2 min. or until chocolate is completely melted; stir until well blended. Add powdered sugar; mix well.

Use foil handles to lift dessert from pan; spread with frosting. Stand cookies in brownies; add small amount of coconut at base of each to resemble grass.
