As the Fourth of July approaches, I always feel a sense of excitement and nostalgia. It's that time of year when the air feels alive with the promise of fun, family, and fireworks. This year, I found myself brainstorming dessert ideas for our annual backyard barbecue. The classic staples—hamburgers, hot dogs, and watermelon—are always a hit, but I wanted something special for dessert. That's when I stumbled upon a recipe for S'mores Brownies, and I knew I had to give it a try.
These brownies are nothing short of amazing. Combining the gooey goodness of S'mores with the convenience of a brownie, they're a crowd-pleaser that's hard to resist. If you're planning a cookout or just looking for an indulgent treat to enjoy at home, this recipe is a must-try!
Here’s what you’ll need:
**For the Graham Cracker Crust:**
- 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 10 tablespoons of butter, melted
**For the Brownies:**
- 8 tablespoons of unsalted butter
- 8 ounces of bittersweet chocolate
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 egg yolks
- 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 teaspoon of salt
- One 10-ounce bag of mini marshmallows
The process is straightforward:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x13 inch baking pan with aluminum foil, allowing some excess to hang over the edges for easy removal later. Lightly grease the foil.
2. To make the crust, mix the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Press this mixture evenly into the prepared pan and bake for about 15 minutes until golden.
3. While the crust bakes, prepare the brownie batter by melting the butter and chocolate together. Let it cool slightly before adding the eggs, sugar, and vanilla. Stir in the flour and cocoa powder.
4. Pour the batter over the crust and bake for 30-35 minutes. Once done, switch your oven to broil and spread the marshmallows over the top. Keep a close eye on them as they broil until they just start to brown.
5. Allow the brownies to cool completely before slicing and serving.
The result? A decadent treat that perfectly captures the spirit of summer and the joy of sharing food with loved ones. Max, my trusty companion, couldn't wait to dig in either!
