Layered S’mores Brownies
Ingredients
- 6 graham cracker sheets
- ¾ cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup bittersweet chocolate chips
- 1⅓ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs (room temperature)
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- ½ cup cocoa powder
- 1 tsp vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 tsp espresso powder
- 7.5 oz marshmallow fluff (or more if you like!)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line an 8×8 inch square baking pan with parchment paper and grease the bottom with butter or cooking spray. Arrange graham crackers on the bottom in a single layer and set aside.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter. Remove from the microwave and stir in the bittersweet chocolate chips.
- Microwave for another 20-30 seconds to melt the chocolate. Stir until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the sugar and eggs together. Slowly whisk in the melted chocolate mixture and fold in the flour, cocoa powder, vanilla, salt and espresso powder. Do not overmix.
- Pour batter into prepared baking pan and bake for 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and top with marshmallow fluff. Place back in the oven for 10 minutes, until the fluff turns golden brown. Broil for 1-2 minutes if desired for a more toasted top.
- Allow to cool completely on a wire rack before removing from the pan and cutting into squares. Enjoy!
Notes
- Brownies can be stored at room temperature for up to 3 days in an airtight container.
