  1. Preheat the Oven:

    • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

    • Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving overhang for easy removal.

  2. Make the Crust:

    • In a bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar.

    • Mix until the texture resembles wet sand.

  3. Press and Bake:

    • Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan, creating an even layer.

    • Bake for 8-10 minutes or until golden and set.

    • Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.

    • Add the granulated sugar and brown sugar and whisk until smooth.

  2. Add Eggs and Vanilla:

    • Whisk in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.

    • Mix until fully combined.

  3. Sift in Dry Ingredients:

    • Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.

  1. Preheat the Broiler:

    • Adjust the oven to the broiler setting (or use a kitchen torch).

  2. Add the Marshmallows:

    • Sprinkle the mini marshmallows evenly over the brownie layer.

  3. Toast the Marshmallows:

    • Place the pan under the broiler for 1-2 minutes, watching closely to prevent burning.

    • Alternatively, use a kitchen torch to toast the marshmallows until golden and puffy.

Cool, Slice, and Serve
5

  1. Cool the Brownies:

    • Let the brownies cool for 15 minutes before slicing to prevent the marshmallow layer from sticking.

  2. Slice and Serve:

    • Use a sharp knife coated with non-stick spray to slice through the sticky marshmallow topping.

    • Serve warm or at room temperature.

Serving and Presentation
6

  • Serve the S’mores Brownies warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra decadent treat.

  • For a more elegant presentation, drizzle with melted chocolate or caramel sauce.

Tips and Variations
7

  • Peanut Butter S’mores Brownies: Swirl in 1/4 cup peanut butter into the brownie batter before baking.

  • Mint S’mores Brownies: Add 1/2 tsp peppermint extract to the brownie batter for a minty twist.

  • Nutty S’mores Brownies: Sprinkle 1/2 cup crushed pecans or walnuts over the marshmallow layer before toasting.
