Frosted Marshmallow Brownies

I made these brownies at our Thanksgiving dinner and they were a hit. I didn’t have a single leftover! This was back before I had started my blog. I made them again last night for our barbecue, and decided to post them. They are so delicious and rich, you can only eat a small piece. They are best described as a layer of brownie, a layer of marshmallow, and a layer of fudge to top it off. This recipe is a real winner, I can’t wait to make it again!

In a small bowl combine flour, baking powder, salt and cocoa. Stir to combine. Add the flour mixture to creamed mixture. spread in greased 9×13 pan.
Bake for 17-20 minutes (I had to bake mine for about 25 minutes). Remove from oven and sprinkle with marshmallows, return to oven 2-3 minutes, or just until marshmallows are soft.
Remove from oven. Using a knife dipped in water spread the metled marshmallows evenly over bars.

 

Frosting:

• 3/4 stick butter

• 1 1/4 cups sugar
• 1/2 cup mini marshmallows or 4-6 large marshmallows
• 1/2 cup Chocolate chips (maybe up to 3/4 cup depending how chocolaty you want it, I used 3/4 cup)

Combine ingredients (except marshmallows and chocolate chips) in medium saucepan and melt over medium low heat. Stir constantly until combined. Bring to a boil and boil for 1 minute.
Add marshmallows and chocolate chips
Stir until marshmallows and chips are melted.
Remove from heat. Allow to cool and thicken slightly (can set in sink of cold water to speed up process). Pour and spread over marshmallows on bars.
Allow to cool before cutting and serving ( I put mine in the fridge to cool).
