S'more Brownies

 One of our favorite things about the fall is being able to sit around a campfire with some toasted marshmallows, and of course s'mores. You can't have a campfire without at least having one s'more! Now that it's winter, it's too cold outside to be having a campfire, so indoor s'mores are the next best thing, right? 
Well, we saw a picture of s'more brownies, and we thought: we have to try this! What could make a brownie better? Adding marshmallows of course! We didn't have a recipe so we kind of just made one up as we went along.



The first thing to do is to make a graham cracker crust. You can use your favorite recipe, or buy one from the store and make it like a brownie s'more pie. If you make one homemade, you can crush your graham crackers in a storage bag with a rolling pin, or you can simply use a food processor(which is what we did). Then, put the crust into whatever size pan that you are going to use. We baked our graham cracker crust before putting the brownie batter onto it, but next time we make these we are going to try making them without baking the crust first. If you try it without baking the graham cracker crust first, let us know how it turns out!


Our favorite type of brownies are fudgy brownies, so that is the kind of brownie that we made, but you can use whatever type of brownie that you prefer. Then you bake the brownies until they are almost done. 



Before the brownies are completely done, add the mini marshmallows to the top of them. The marshmallows will take about 5-10 minutes to get the golden-brown color on the top. If you are worried about your brownies being overdone, a kitchen torch can be used to brown the marshmallows.


These are just some pictures of how the brownies looked when we were all done! We hope you enjoy these brownies as much as we did!


***Note: Be sure to cut these brownies before they are completely cooled, so that the marshmallows are easier to cut through. Also, make sure to use a non-stick spray on your knife or else the marshmallows will stick to your knife and it will be a pain in the butt to cut all of your brownies.
