¾cupsunsweetened cocoa powderI've tested these with Hershey's & Target's Good & Gather brand
1teaspoonkosher salt
½teaspoonbaking powder (not baking soda!)
1tablespooncornstarch
1teaspoonespresso powder (totally optional!)
¾cupsemi-sweet chocolate chips or chunks
½cupvegetable oil
¼cupswarm water
2large eggs
1teaspoonvanilla extract
Crust & Topping
16graham cracker squares
½cupsemi-sweet chocolate chips or chunks, divided
18large marshmallows, halved
Instructions
Whisk together dry brownie ingredients in large bowl. Add wet ingredients and mix with the whisk until just incorporated; batter will be thick.
Line a 9x9" light-colored aluminum metal pan with parchment paper, then cover the bottom with a layer of graham crackers (14 squares).Spoon batter into dollops on top of graham crackers and carefully spread to the edges.
Top with ¼ cup extra chocolate chips, then bake at 325℉ for 36-40 minutes, or until center 90% baked through. If you're using a 9x13 pan, bake for 24-26 minutes.Do not turn off the oven yet!
Remove the brownies from the oven and immediately press the marshmallow halves into the top, gently pressing them into the brownies (this will help so that they don't slide off later). Brownies will feel a little jiggly & raw. Sprinkle on remaining ¼ cup chocolate chips.
Place back in the oven for 6-8 minutes or until marshmallows are puffy and very lightly brown.
To finish them off & get the toasted color, broil on low until lightly toasted brown (this may only take 30 seconds!). You MUST watch the oven the entire time or your marshmallows will burn FAST - trust me!!!!
Remove from the oven and allow to full cool before cutting. While gooey treats can get messy to cut, wiping your knife off between each cut can help you achieve clean cuts.
Notes
Storage: Store in an airtight container for 3-4 days. The brownies get even fudgier on Day 2!
Freezing: I don't recommend freezing these after putting on the marshmallows or they'll become sticky.
