What you need to make Brownie Marshmallow Crunch Bars:

1 cup unsalted butter, softened

1 cup granulated sugar

1 cup packed brown sugar

2 large eggs1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 teaspoon salt

1 cup chopped marshmallows

1/2 cup Rice Krispies cereal

1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips

How to make it:

Prepare the baking pan: Grease and line a 9×13 inch baking pan with parchment paper.

Make the brownie batter: In a large bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.

Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.

Fold in marshmallows and cereal: Gently fold in the chopped marshmallows and Rice Krispies cereal.

Pour and bake: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and bake in a preheated 350°F (175°C) oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Cool and top: Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before removing and cutting into squares.

Melt chocolate: Place the semisweet chocolate chips in a heat-safe bowl and microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until melted and smooth.

Drizzle chocolate: Drizzle the melted chocolate over the cooled brownies.

Chill and enjoy: Let the bars chill for at least 30 minutes before serving. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature.

Tips:

Don’t overbake: Brownies should be fudgy, not dry. To ensure they are cooked through without being overdone, use a toothpick to test the center. If it comes out clean, they are ready.

Chill before cutting: Allowing the brownies to cool completely before cutting will help them hold their shape and prevent them from crumbling.

Customize the toppings: While semisweet chocolate chips are a classic topping, you can experiment with other options. Try drizzling melted white chocolate, sprinkling chopped nuts, or even adding a layer of peanut butter for a unique twist.
