Marshmallow Brownies
by Firebyrd
An ooey gooey marshmallow layer is sandwiched between chocolatey frosting and a thick & fudgy brownie studded with milk chocolate chips. If you want to make them rocky road style just add one cup of walnuts or pecans to the brownies. SO much better than using a brownie mix!
INGREDIENTS
- ====Brownies====
- 1 cup butter
- 4 squares unsweetened chocolate
- 2 cups sugar
- 4 eggs
- pinch of salt
- 1 1/2 cups flour
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips
- ====Frosting====
- 1/2 cup butter
- 4 squares unsweetened chocolate
- 1/3 cup milk or cream ; (can sub evaporated milk, or half-n-half)
- 3-4 cups powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- dash of salt
- 1 pound mini marshmallows
INSTRUCTIONS
Melt butter and chocolate. Remove from heat and add sugar, then one egg at a time, beating after each addition. (I did this in the kitchenaid.) Add salt, flour, vanilla, nuts and/or chocolate chips. Mix well. Bake in a 12x15 inch well-greased pan (I used my cookie sheet with sides) at 350F for 25 minutes. Remove from oven just long enough to sprinkle liberally with mini-marshmallows (you want the top to be all but covered with marshamallows). Return to oven for 3-5 minutes until marshmallow are super soft, but not browned or crusty. Gently press down on marshmallows to fill in any possible gaps. Let cool completely then frost.
====FROSTING====
In medium sauce pan, melt butter, chocolate, and milk product of choosing. Stir powdered sugar, vanilla, and salt until smooth. You want it runny enough to easily spread, but thick enough to set-up quickly and not pool. (Think texas sheet cake, if you're familiar with that). Pour over cooled brownies and spread as necessary. Let frosting set and come to room temp before cutting. ( For best results allow to stand for 12 hours)
NOTES
The pan I use for this recipe is a Pampered Chef Stoneware rectangular bar pan. It's perfect.
I've never doubled this recipe because it already makes a lot! But if you are baking for a crowd and you DO double it use a 1/2 sheet pan (1 inch deep cookie sheet) and it will fill the whole thing to the top.
