Ingredients

Graham Cracker Crust

  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs about 9 whole graham cracker sheets, pulsed very fine
  • 2 tbs light brown sugar
  • 1 tbs unsalted butter

Brownie

  • 10 tbs unsalted butter
  • 1 ¼ cups sugar
  • ¾ cup + 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour

Toppings

  • 25-30 large marshmallows cut in half
  • 5 hershey bars standard size

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 325°F. Line a 9x9 baking pan with parchment paper, set aside.

For the graham cracker crust

  • Prepare graham cracker crust by combining graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar and melted butter and stir very well to distribute all ingredients evenly. Press the mixture very firmly on the bottom of prepared baking pan. Set aside.

For the brownies

  • Place butter, cocoa and sugar in a large microwave-safe bowl and microwave for about 1 minute and 30 seconds, or until butter is melted. Mix everything together until smooth. Add in eggs and vanilla and mix until smooth. Pour in the flour and mix until just combined. Then, mix some more until smooth and somewhat glossy. The batter will be very thick.
  • Pour the batter on top of graham cracker crust and smooth it out into an even layer. Bake for 25-28 minutes or until a toothpick comes out with a small amount of batter on the bottom - this is what keeps them fudgy.
  • At this point, prepare toppings. Unwrap chocolate bars and cut marshmallows in half because you will need to work fast in the next step.
  • Once brownies are done, pull them out of the oven and switch the oven to broil. Place candy bars in a single layer on top of the hot brownies. Line marshmallow halves on top of the candy bar. Place pan back in the oven under the broiler to brown the marshmallows. Watch carefully.
  • Once marshmallows are browned, let the brownies cool for about 20 minutes before cutting into them. I like to stick mine in the fridge for 30 minutes to let the chocolate set up, then I let them sit out at room temperature.
  • The easiest way to cut these brownies is to spray non-stick spray onto the knife each time you slice through or else the marshmallow will be too sticky and unmanageable.

Notes

Storage instructions: Brownies will stay fresh and marshmallows will stay soft for up to 3-4 days stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator or at room temperature. If storing in the refrigerator, take them out 1 hour before serving to let them come to room temperature.
