These are awesome! I read all of the reviews and followed the advice. I increased the marshmallows to 2 cups, used 6 Hershey bars, cut the graham crackers into smaller pieces, and only put the toppings on for the last five minutes of baking. Everyone loved them and asked for the recipe!
I made this for the 4th of July, and our guests couldn't devour them quick enough. I would maybe next time bake the brownie a little longer before topping it with the s'mores mixture, and cover it with foil to avoid too much darkening of graham crackers and marshmallows. I will definately bake it again in the future. It would be a great dessert to take to a potluck. It really goes further than you might think, given the fact that it's so rich.
I used the "best brownies" recipe on this site and baked them for 25 minutes, then I mixed up the chocolate frosting for that recipe and just mixed the marshmallows & teddy grams together and spread it onto the brownies right out of the oven....YUM! It almost didn't need to go back into the oven, although I put it back in for 3 minutes. The kids loved them!! Thanks Liza!
I read many of the reviews and worked them into the recipe and the brownies turned out great! I too used milk choc chips teddy grahams and extra marshmallows and baked plain brownie til almost done. I then threw on toppings and baked 5 minutes - just long enough to melt the chips so they held everything together. Thank you everyone for the tips. I was very happy with the results and my daughter's class devoured them.
This is a great idea for you sweets lovers!! To make it not so rich, i always bake my borwnies on a cookie sheet (15"x10"x3/4" or about that size) It makes the brownies thinner, then when you add the toppings, cute and serve, that are the perfect portion!! I also add about 2 TBS melted butter to the graham cracker mix, to keep it together a little better!! YUM YUM!
WOW! These are so simple and easy to make yet so incredibly delicious it'll have you asking yourself -Why didn't I think of this? What a great twist on two classics - S'mores and Brownies! This was oh so chocolately oohey gooey and just plain good! I put the S'mores topping on the last ten minutes of cooking and it came out perfect. This recipe is a definite keeper!
I won't say I didn't like these I just wasn't terribly impressed by the recipe. Take the advice of other reviewers and wait longer before adding the s'more topping otherwise the marshmallows get too browned and the graham crackers develop a toasted/burnt flavor. This is a fast recipe and kids will probably love it.
I copied this recipe in 2001. I happened to check back on the reviews today and was amazed at all the trouble with this recipe. Everyone I make these for loves them. They disappear quite quickly. I use the cake recipe for the brownies and cook for 15 minutes. Then add the topping slightly pressing down and bake another 15 minutes. If the marshmallows start to look too dark I shield them with foil for the rest of the cooking time. They are very good.
This was a HUGE hit at our family party! Of course I saw the recipe but didn't have all the exact ingredients so I improvised and it turned out great! I used milk chocolate morsels 2 cups of marshmallows and I didn't have graham crackers so I mixed 1.5 cups of graham cracker crumbs with 1/3 cup of butter and sprinkled some of that over the brownies then did the marshmallows and chocolate then topped with the rest of the graham mix. IT WAS AWESOME! The buttery graham cracker mix really took it up a notch. I'll be making this again!
