Ingredients
Brownie Bites
- 1 box brownie mix, prepared according to package directions
- 12 large marshmallows, halved
Toppings
- ½ cup milk chocolate chips
- ¼ cup graham cracker crumbs
- Mini marshmallows for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven according to the brownie mix package instructions to ensure proper baking temperature for the brownies.
- Prepare Pan: Grease a mini muffin pan thoroughly to prevent the brownie bites from sticking after baking.
- Fill Muffin Cups: Spoon brownie batter into each muffin cup, filling them about ¾ full to allow room for rising without overflowing.
- Bake Brownies: Bake the filled muffin pan for 10–12 minutes or until the brownies are set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs but no raw batter.
- Add Marshmallows: Remove the muffins from the oven and immediately press a half marshmallow into the center of each brownie bite so they stick as the treats cool slightly.
- Softening Marshmallows: Return the pan to the oven for an additional 1–2 minutes until the marshmallows soften and become gooey.
- Apply Toppings: Sprinkle the softened brownie bites with milk chocolate chips and graham cracker crumbs for authentic s’mores flavor and texture.
- Cool & Serve: Allow the brownie bites to cool slightly in the pan before removing and serving, optionally garnish with mini marshmallows if desired.
Notes
- For extra chocolate flavor, drizzle melted chocolate over the cooled brownie bites before serving.
- Best enjoyed slightly warm to keep the marshmallows gooey and chocolate melty.
- Store leftover brownie bites in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days to maintain freshness.
