Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan with butter or line with parchment paper, allowing excess paper to hang over the sides for easy removal.
- In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter. Add granulated and brown sugars, whisking until well combined and smooth.
- Add eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract until the mixture is fully incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, sift together all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
- Fold in half of the chocolate chips into the brownie batter. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading evenly with a spatula.
- Sprinkle graham cracker crumbs evenly over the top of the batter, gently pressing them slightly into the surface.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Remove from oven and immediately top with remaining chocolate chips and mini marshmallows, covering the entire surface.
- Return to oven and broil for 1-2 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning. The marshmallows should be golden brown and puffy.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely in the pan for about 1 hour. Use the parchment paper to lift the brownies out and cut into 12 equal squares.
- For best results, serve slightly warm or at room temperature. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
