S'More Brownies


S'More Brownies

10 graham crackers, broken in half, divided
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) butter
12 tablespoons baking cocoa + 3 tablespoons vegetable oil (or 4 squares unsweetened baking chocolate)
2 cups sugar
3 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup flour
2 1/2 cups mini-marshmallows
1 cup semi-sweet chunk (or Hershey's special dark chocolate chips)

Heat oven to 350. Line 9X13 pan with foil, grease foil. Place 15 grahams in pan, overlapping slightly. Break remaing grahams into pieces; set aside.

Mix baking cocoa and vegetable oil until smooth. Put in large bowl with butter and microwave on High for 1 minute or until butter is melted. (If using baking squares just melt squares and butter in microwave) Stir until melted. Add sugar, eggs and vanilla; mix well. Stir in flour. Pour over grahams in pan.

Bake 30-32 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out with fudgy crumbs. Do not overbake. Sprinkle with marshmallows and chocolate chunks. Bake 3-5 minutes or until marshmallows begin to puff. Press reserved grahams gently into marshmallows. Cool. Use foil to remove brownies from pan before cutting to serve.

-- The original recipe used baking squares. I never have those on had so I used the baking cocoa as a substitue. It works exactly the same and is much cheaper. 1 baking square = 3 tablespoons cocao + 1 tablespoon vegetable oil.
