  • 1/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/2 cup water

  6. Sprinkle marshmallows and chocolate chips over the top of the brownies.
  7. Place the pan under the broiler about 4 to 6 inches away for 1 minute or until the marshmallows are lightly browned.

How to Store S’mores Brownies

Store any leftover brownies in an airtight container at room temperature. They stay fresh for about 2 to 3 days. If you want to keep them longer, move them to the fridge for up to a week or freeze them for up to three months.

Tips to Make S’mores Brownies

  • For extra flavor, add a pinch of salt or a splash of vanilla extract to the brownie mixture.
  • Experiment with different types of chocolate chips, like milk chocolate or dark chocolate, to suit your taste.
  • If you want a crunchier top, toast the marshmallows longer under the broiler, but watch them closely to prevent burning.

Variation

You can add crushed nuts, like walnuts or pecans, to the brownie batter for additional texture. Also, try using different types of graham crackers, such as chocolate-flavored ones, for a unique twist!

FAQs

Q: Can I make these brownies in advance?
A: Yes! You can make them a day ahead and store them in an airtight container until you are ready to serve.

Q: Can I use homemade brownie mix instead of a box mix?
A: Absolutely! Just ensure to adjust the liquid amounts based on your homemade recipe to achieve the right brownie consistency.

Q: What if I don’t have a broiler?
A: If you don’t have a broiler, you can bake the brownies for a bit longer and then just let the marshmallows sit on top until they melt. A few extra minutes in the oven will do the trick!
