I've transformed the classic hot chocolate drink favorite into a decadent brownie, featuring a rich, fudgy base, a dreamy marshmallow fluff layer, and more chocolatey goodness on top.
Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line a 9x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some parchment paper overhang for handles, and set aside.
Whisk together the dry ingredients in a medium-sized bowl and set aside.
Melt the butter on the stove in a medium-sized saucepan over low heat. Stir in the brown sugar, combining with the melted butter until mixed in thoroughly. Remove from the heat and let cool until just warm.
Beat in the eggs until thoroughly combined. Stir in the dry ingredients and mix until completely combined into the wet ingredients.
Spoon 2/3 of the dough into the bottom of the prepared pan until it's a smooth layer. Spread the marshmallow fluff on top of the cookie dough. Spoon the remaining dough into little circles on top of the marshmallow fluff.
Bake at 350°F for 25-30 minutes, or until the center of the brownies is no longer raw. The edges will be browned, and the middle can be slightly undercooked. If the marshmallow gets too brown, you can lightly cover the top with tinfoil and continue to bake.
Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
Notes
To add another flavor to these, replace 1/2 teaspoon of the vanilla extract with the flavored extract of your choice. Peppermint is delicious!You can mix in 1/2 cup of add-ins, such as chopped candy canes, nuts, or chocolate chips, into the batter at the end.
