I love turtle cake, cheesecake, sundaes, you name it I don't think you can beat the caramel pecan chocolate combo :) I'm glad that you guys like this cake, I agree that it would have been better if the cake part was more moist. Having the word brownie in the title made me think dense and fudgey so that's why I think I was disappointed.
