Description
Deliciously rich and fudgy brownies topped with fluffy marshmallows and chocolate.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cups sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 1/4 cups Dutch-process cocoa or unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups All-Purpose Flour or Bob’s Red Mill Gluten-Free 1 for 1 Baking Flour
- 3/4 cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 – 4 tablespoons heavy cream or milk of choice
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup mini marshmallows (use gluten-free marshmallows if using GF option)
- 1 cup mini-marshmallows (use gluten-free marshmallows if using GF option)
- 1 chocolate bar (shaved or grated)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9″ x 13″ pan or line with parchment paper or tin foil lightly greased for easy removal after baked.
- In a medium-sized microwave-safe bowl, or in a saucepan set over low heat, combine the butter and sugar, and heat, stirring, until the butter is melted. Continue to heat (or microwave) briefly, just until the mixture is hot (about 110°F to 120°F), but not bubbling. Mixture should be smooth and shiny.
- Using a mixer, beat eggs at medium speed with the cocoa, salt, baking powder, and vanilla for about 1 minute, or until smooth.
- Add the hot butter/sugar mixture to the egg/cocoa mixture, stirring until smooth.
- Add the flour, stirring until smooth.
- Spoon the batter into a lightly greased 9″ x 13″ pan.
- Bake the brownies for 28 to 32 minutes. The brownies should feel set on the edges, and the center should look very moist, but not uncooked. Remove them from the oven to cool.
- Using a mixer, beat the butter, powdered sugar, cocoa powder, cream, salt and vanilla together to get frosting consistency you want by adding in more powdered sugar or milk as needed. Beat in marshmallows and frost cake after it has cooled.
- Add marshmallows and grated chocolate to top of brownies. Cut and serve when ready.
Notes
- Ensure to use gluten-free marshmallows if making a gluten-free version.
- Adjust the frosting consistency by adding powdered sugar or milk as needed.
