Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and lightly flour a 9x13-inch baking pan. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. (2 minutes)

03

Step

In a separate bowl, cream together the melted butter and sugar until well combined. Beat in the vanilla extract, then add the eggs one at a time, mixing until smooth. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. (3 minutes)

05

Step

Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan. (2 minutes)

06

Step

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs. (25 minutes)

07

Step

While the brownies are baking, combine the peanut butter and chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth. (2 minutes)

08

Step

Gently fold in the crispy rice cereal until evenly coated. (1 minute)

09

Step

Once the brownies are out of the oven, sprinkle the miniature marshmallows evenly over the top. Return to the oven and bake for 2-3 minutes, or until the marshmallows are slightly softened. (3 minutes)

10

Step

Pour the chocolate peanut butter mixture over the marshmallows, spreading it evenly. (2 minutes)

11

Step

Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. For cleaner cuts, chill the brownies in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before slicing. (30+ minutes)

For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet.
Add a pinch of sea salt on top of the chocolate layer to enhance the sweetness.
Line the baking pan with parchment paper for easy removal and cleanup.
Store leftover brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

    I followed the recipe exactly, and they turned out perfectly. So fudgy and delicious!

  • Mathilde Konopelski

    Next time, I might add some chopped peanuts for extra crunch.

  • Ryder Nader

    These brownies were a huge hit at my office potluck! Everyone raved about the combination of chocolate, peanut butter, and marshmallows.

  • Everardo Ebert

    The marshmallow layer got a little too burnt for me, so I would suggest checking them frequently during the last few minutes of baking.
