Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (226g) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 1/2 cups (300g) granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup (100g) packed brown sugar
  • 3 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour, sifted
  • 3/4 cup (75g) unsweetened cocoa powder, preferably Dutch-processed
  • 1 teaspoon espresso powder (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3 cups (about 150g) mini marshmallows
  • 1 1/2 cups roughly crushed graham crackers
  • 1 cup (170g) semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9×13 inch baking pan with parchment paper or grease it well.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Whisk until smooth and glossy, about 1-2 minutes.
  3. Add eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract until batter is shiny and slightly thick.
  4. In a separate bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, espresso powder, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Gradually fold dry ingredients into wet ingredients until just combined, avoiding overmixing.
  6. Fold in chocolate chips and crushed graham crackers, leaving some larger pieces for texture.
  7. Pour batter evenly into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with moist crumbs but not raw batter.
  9. Remove brownies from oven and immediately sprinkle mini marshmallows evenly over the top.
  10. Switch oven to broil on low or the lowest setting. Broil marshmallows for 1-3 minutes, watching closely until melted, bubbled, and golden brown.
  11. Let brownies cool in the pan for at least 20 minutes to set. Slice into squares and serve.

Notes

Do not overbake the brownies; they should be slightly underdone in the center when removed from the oven. Use room temperature eggs for better texture. Crush graham crackers by hand for varied texture. Watch marshmallows carefully while broiling to prevent burning. Lining the pan with parchment paper helps with sticky marshmallow cleanup. Espresso powder enhances chocolate flavor but can be omitted or substituted with instant coffee granules.
