Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 box brownie mix
- 1 package (10 ounces / 283 grams) miniature marshmallows
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Graham Cracker Base:
- 1 package graham crackers (about 12–15 full crackers)
Binding and Preparation Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 6 tablespoons butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C), ensuring optimal temperature for baking.
- Transform graham crackers into fine, uniform crumbs using a food processor, creating a smooth base texture.
- Combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar in a mixing bowl, stirring until the mixture achieves a consistent, cohesive consistency.
- Line a 9×13-inch baking dish with parchment paper, then evenly and firmly press the graham cracker mixture into the bottom, creating a compact crust.
- Prepare the brownie batter following the package instructions, ensuring thorough mixing for a rich, chocolatey base.
- Carefully pour the prepared brownie batter over the graham cracker crust, distributing it evenly to cover the entire surface.
- Bake the brownies for 22-25 minutes, checking for a firm center that springs back when lightly touched.
- Immediately after removing from the oven, generously sprinkle miniature marshmallows and chocolate chips across the warm brownie surface.
- Activate the broiler and position the dish underneath, watching intently for 2-3 minutes until marshmallows transform into golden-brown, slightly caramelized peaks.
- Allow the s’mores brownies to cool completely before slicing, ensuring clean, neat cuts and optimal serving presentation.
Notes
- Customize graham cracker base by swapping traditional crackers with gluten-free alternatives for those with dietary restrictions.
- Toast marshmallows carefully under broiler, rotating pan frequently to achieve even golden-brown color without scorching.
- Create texture variation by mixing different chocolate chip types like milk, dark, and semi-sweet for complex flavor profile.
- Enhance dessert’s portability by cutting brownies into smaller squares and using parchment paper between layers during storage.
