As the temperatures drop, I can’t help but think of fun things like back yard camp fires, roasting marshmallows over an open fire and enjoying the fun that a camp fire brings. Except, I’m not really a huge fan of camp fires or camp outs for that matter. I really just want to roast a marshmallow and eat a s’more.
But, I baked up a little goodness in my kitchen the other day, and it might just solve my dilemma.
S’mores brownies.
The goodness of a s’more in the form of a brownie, baked right in the comforts of my own kitchen.
These brownies start out with a graham cracker crust. Do yourself a favor and add just a pinch (I’m talking a tiny bit) of salt to the crust in order to take it to the next level. Then, using a store bought brownie mix (don’t make it hard on yourself, just purchase your favorites family-sized brand from the store), the chocolate element is added to the s’mores. Toasted marshmallows finish the brownies and make for one delicious dessert.
Don’t be confused, these are just as messy as your campfire s’more, but worth every bit of sticky goodness. Just grab a fork and dig right in.
- Crust:
- 10-12 crushed graham crackers
- ½ cup melted butter
- pinch of salt
- ¼ c sugar
- Brownies:
- 1 store bought package of family size brownies (plus necessary ingredients as stated on the package)
- Topping:
- 3 cups mini marshmallows
- Preheat oven according to directions on brownie box
- Start by making a graham cracker crust. Mix crushed graham crackers, melted butter, salt and sugar in a mixing bowl. Firmly press mixture into the bottom of a 13x9" greased pan.
- Next, mix the brownies according to the instructions on the package and pour over graham cracker crust.
- Bake according to package directions.
- When the brownies are finished baking, remove from the oven.
- Set the oven to broil (make sure that your rack isn't too close to the element). Add mini marshmallows to the top of the brownies and bake in the oven for 2-3 minutes. It won't take long at all, so keep a close eye on the marshmallows.
- Allow the brownies to cool completely before cutting.
