Total Time: 40 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 bars
Ingredients
- 1 box brownie mix
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that your oven is at the right temperature when you are ready to bake your brownie bars.
- Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan with non-stick cooking spray or line it with parchment paper for easy removal of the bars after baking.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the brownie mix, 2 large eggs, and 1/2 cup of vegetable oil. Use a whisk or a spatula to mix the ingredients until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- Fold in 1 cup of mini marshmallows, 1/2 cup of chocolate chips, and 1/4 cup of chopped nuts (if using). Gently mix until the marshmallows and chocolate chips are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Make sure the batter reaches all corners of the pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes. Start checking for doneness at the 20-minute mark. The brownies are done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs but not wet batter.
- Once baked, remove the pan from the oven and allow the brownies to cool in the pan on a wire rack for about 10-15 minutes.
- After cooling, lift the brownies out of the pan using the parchment paper (if used) or cut them directly in the pan. Slice into 12 equal bars.
- Serve the Brownie Magic Mallow Bars warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your delicious treat!
Tips
- Use room temperature eggs for better batter consistency and even mixing.
- Don't overmix the batter - this can lead to tough, dense brownies.
- For extra indulgence, sprinkle some additional chocolate chips on top before baking.
- Let the brownies cool slightly before cutting to get clean, neat bars.
- Store in an airtight container to maintain their soft, gooey texture.
- For a fun variation, try using different types of nuts or adding a drizzle of caramel on top.
- If you want extra marshmallow goodness, add a few more on top during the last 5 minutes of baking.
