Whipped Berry Brownies

If you love berries and chocolate together even  half as much as I do - you'll love this yummy dessert!
Since it's kind of my own invention (based on a dessert a friend made a while back) I didn't have a name for it. My 10 yr. old daughter came up with the name on her first try so here's the recipe for:
Whipped Berry Brownies
 
BEST BROWNIE RECIPE
1 cup butter
2 cups sugar
4 eggs
1-1/2 tsp. vanilla
1/2 cup cocoa
1-1/3 cups flour
1/2 tsp. salt
Cream butter and sugar together.
Add eggs and blend well.
Add vanilla, salt, cocoa and flour.  Don’t overbeat.
Pour into a greased 9X13 pan.
Bake at 350 F for 20-25 minutes.

Berry Sauce
 1 bag frozen mixed berries
1/2 cup water
1/3 cup sugar
1 -2 T. cornstarch + water
Bring berries. sugar,  and 1/2 cup water to a boil in a small saucepan.
 Combine water and cornstarch
Add to berry mixture till sauce reaches desired thickness.

To serve:
Drizzle berry sauce over a warm brownie.
Top with whipped topping and almonds

OPTIONAL SHORTCUTS: 
If you're in a hurry you can always use a brownie box mix and top with a can of berry pie filling! Simple/easy/fast and oh, so delicious!
