Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 2 cups mini marshmallows
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Mix until well combined.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
- Pour half of the brownie batter into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
- In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the peanut butter until smooth.
- Drizzle half of the melted peanut butter over the brownie layer, then sprinkle the mini marshmallows on top.
- Pour the remaining brownie batter over the marshmallows and spread gently.
- Drizzle the rest of the peanut butter on top and sprinkle with chocolate chips.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes before cutting into squares.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, try adding a teaspoon of espresso powder to the brownie batter.
- Consider topping with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream before serving for extra indulgence.
