campfire smores brownies_______________________________The perfect summer cookout treat without the open-fire hazard! Tip - be unattached to the beauty of these brownies. Marshmallows have a sneaky way of attaching themselves to knives.
Ingredients
- 6 sheets honey or cinnamon grahams
- 8 tbsp butter (1 stick)
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 eggs, at room temperature
- 1/2 cup all purpose flour
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2 cups mini marshmallows
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 9 x 9 inch baking dish with parchment, leaving some to overhang the edges.
- Line the bottom of the baking pan with graham crackers, fully covering the parchment. You may need to break and arrange the sheets to get them to fit properly.
- In a microwave-safe bowl or measuring cup, heat butter, sugars, milk chocolate chips, and vanilla in 30 second increments, stirring after each to ensure none of the components scald. This process took about 2 minutes in my microwave, but times may vary. The butter and chocolate should be completely melted and the mixture very smooth. Let cool for 10 minutes at room temperature.
- In a small bowl, whisk eggs until very frothy. Slowly add to the butter mixture, whisking until incorporated. Add flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Stir until just combined.
- Pour brownie batter over the graham crackers and gently spread with a rubber spatula. Tap pan a couple times on the counter to loosen any air bubbles and help the batter distribute.
- Bake 25-30 minutes until the center is set and a toothpick inserted into center removes with just a few moist crumbs.
- Turn oven broiler to high. Spread mini marshmallows evenly over the brownies. Broil 30 to 60 seconds. WATCH CLOSELY! When marshmallows obtain desired shade of toastiness, remove pan from the oven.
- Let cool in the pan for 20 minutes, then lift the edges of the parchment and pull brownie slab out of the pan. Run the blade of a very sharp knife under hot water and slice brownies into desired number of squares. Serve warm.
