Maple-Mocha Brownie Torte

1 package brownie mix (13-in. x 9-in. pan size)
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
2 cups heavy whipping cream
2 teaspoons instant coffee granules
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1-1/2 teaspoons maple flavoring
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Chocolate curls or additional walnuts, optional

Prepare batter for brownie mix according to package directions for cake-like
brownies. Stir in walnuts. Pour into two greased 9-in. round baking pans. Bake
at 350° for 20-22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted 2 in. from the edge
comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to
cool completely. In a large mixing bowl, beat cream and coffee granules until
stiff peaks form. Gradually beat in brown sugar, maple flavoring and vanilla.
Spread 1-1/2 cups over one brownie layer; top with second layer. Spread remaining
cream mixture over top and sides of torte. Garnish with chocolate curls or
walnuts if desired. Store in the refrigerator.

Yield: 12 servings.
