If you are a brownie lover, you should put these on your list of must-try recipes! So easy to make, and the flavors are out of this world. They remind me a lot of the brownies we used to have in school, back when most of our lunches were homemade. Both fudgy and chewy thanks to the marshmallow and brownie, plus the smooth ganache with a touch of peanut butter–they are simply irresistible!

Brownies are a huge favorite at our house, and we make them often. Sometimes we fancy it up a little and make German Chocolate Brownies with it’s fantastic coconut pecan frosting, and other times it’s just regular brownies (with frosting or without). But they’re always scarfed up quickly, no matter how we make them. So it wasn’t any surprise that these were hugely popular, but not just with my family–anyone who had them!

You can use the brownie recipe I’m sharing below, but you can also use any favorite brownie recipe, or even fancy up a box mix. It makes them very versatile, on top of being quick and easy.

How to make

Mix together melted butter, both sugars, and oil in a large bowl. Add the eggs and vanilla, and whisk very well until combined.

Add the flour (sifted), cocoa, and salt. Mix just until combined. Gently stir in chocolate chips. Pour in a 9×13 pan (metal, not glass is preferred for brownies) sprayed with cooking spray and lined with parchment paper–making sure the ends fold over the edge of the pan.

Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 18-20 minutes.

When you have eight minutes left of baking, sprinkle the marshmallows across the top of the brownies evenly. Bake the last minutes, and remove from the oven to cool.

While the brownies are cooking, make your ganache. In a microwave-safe bowl or glass measuring cup, melt the chocolate chips and peanut butter for 30 seconds, then in 10-second intervals until you can stir smooth. Pour evenly on top of the marshmallows.

Let sit for about 30 minutes before cutting…if you can wait that long! Remove the parchment paper by holding on to the edges, then cut into pieces.

FAQ

Do I need both cooking spray and parchment paper?

You can just use cooking spray if you like. However, parchment paper makes it much easier when baking brownies to remove them from the pan and cut. The cooking spray helps to keep the parchment in place, so they make a great team!

What type of pan is best for brownies?

Using a light colored metal pan (not glass or a dark colored pan) because it conducts heat more evenly.
