Step 1: Lightly grease an 11" x 15" cookie sheet; heat oven to 375 degrees.
Step 2: Chop 1 1/2 cups chocolate bits.
Step 3: In a bowl combine the brownie mix, water, oil, eggs as directed on box and 1/4 cup of the brown sugar; mix well and fold in chopped chocolate bits and pour into pan, spreading evenly.
Step 4: Chop the nuts and combine half of the nuts with the remaining 1/2 cup brown sugar; spread evenly over brownie batter and bake 20-25 minutes till pick comes out clean.
Step 5: Meanwhile, cut 16 Rolo caramels into quarters and set aside to be used as part of the topping after the brownies are completely done.
Step 6: Place the remaining 1/2 cup chocolate bits in a microwave safe bowl and microwave on HIGH for 1 minute or till melted, stirring after each 20-second interval; spoon this into a resealable baggie and set aside for a moment.
Step 7: Remove brownies from the oven and IMMEDIATELY press the remaining 25 Rolo caramels into the brownies in four rows of six caramels each (this will almost melt them all).
Step 8: Sprinkle the saved, quartered Rolo caramels and remaining chopped nuts over the brownies right away.
Step 9: Trim off a small corner of the chocolate-filled baggie and drizzle evenly over the brownies; cut into squares and serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
