Flourless Marshmallow Crunch Brownies






Flourless Marshmallow Crunch Brownies







Crunchy Marshmallow Brownie Bars are a totally gourmet brownie with three kinds of chocolate, an awesome layer of marshmallow and the best brownie base.

Ingredients

For the Brownies
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 cup dark cocoa powder
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips or chopped chocolate

For the Topping:
  • 5 tablespoons butter
  • 1 1/4 cups peanut butter
  • 2 cups chocolate chips (or chopped chocolate)
  • 1 bag mini marshmallows (10.5 oz. or 5.5 cups)
  • 3 cups Rice Krispies, gluten free if needed (I actually used Cocoa Krispies because I strangely can't find plain here. Not complaining.)

Instruction

First, preheat the oven to 350 ° F. Lightly grease a 9 x 13 inch pan.

Then, mix the sugars and the oil and beat until homogeneous. Add eggs and vanilla and whisk together. Beat for about two minutes.

Add the cocoa powder and salt to the dough and mix until smooth. Add the chocolate chips. Pour into the prepared pan.

Bake the brownies for about 17 minutes, then garnish with marshmallows. 

Continue to cook for another 8 minutes (if you are using a different recipe for brownies, just be sure to add the marshmallows for the last 8 minutes of cooking). Let cool while you prepare the filling.

For the garnish

Combine the chocolate chips, peanut butter and butter in a microwave safe dish. Microwave thirty seconds at a time, stirring at each interval, until smooth and melted. Add the Rice Krispies.

Spread the spoonfuls of the filling evenly over the top of the cooled brownies, then spread to cover the entire top. Wait until it has completely cooled before cutting. You can keep them in the fridge for a crunchier, fluffier brownie or on the counter for a gooey brownie. Happy Cooking Time.
