this recipe is a family favorite! since i have prepared this recipe several times, i have made some changes. i used 1 can of evaporated milk (1/2 c, then 1/2 c), and instead of making balls and smashing them on top, i just spooned the brownie mix on top in small globs - adding the extra milk helps with this a lot. also, devil's food cake mix works well, and even a basic scratch chocolate cake recipe
