On low speed add 1/2 the flour mixture then add 1/2 the milk. Repeat. Gently spoon over Blondie layer and carefully smooth over. Place a tent of aluminum foil over the top of the pan (make sure to "tent" the foil because otherwise the top brownie layer will stick to the foil and it wont look good).
• Bake at 350°F covered for 1 hour, remove foil and bake 25-30 minutes longer. Place on rack to cool 30 minutes. Refrigerate at least 2 hours or up to 24 hours.
• Garnish: Either prepare chocolate mousse mix according to directions using only 1 cup milk and spread on top or melt a jar of chocolate frosting for 30 seconds in the microwave and pour over the top (if you do this you'll want to refrigerate for an additional hour). Once on serving plate garnish with caramel topping, chocolate shavings and chopped peanuts. Yum!
