Peanut Butter Marshmallow Fudgy Brownies

How to make Peanut Butter Marshmallow Fudgy Brownies Recipe - Homemade brownies can be very tricky. I was determined to create a recipe exactly how I like my brownies, fudgy, dense, and gooey. I added peanut butter and mini marshmallows to help achieve my perfect brownie. Omit the peanut butter and marshmallows for a plain, thick brownie if desired. Try stuffing with your favorite cookie, candy bar, or preserves as well. The kids love being in charge of layering the marshmallows and drizzling the peanut butter. Serve with a glass of milk and a side of ice cream.

Ingredients:
8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup all-purpose flour
1⁄2 cup granulated sugar
1⁄2 cup packed light brown sugar
1⁄2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 large eggs plus 1 egg yolk
2 tablespoons canola or vegetable oil
1 cup mini marshmallows
1⁄4 cup creamy peanut butter

Method:
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line an 8×8-inch baking dish with foil and spray with nonstick cooking spray.

2. Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring continuously. Add the chocolate chips, stirring, until melted. Remove from the heat.

3. Add the flour, sugars, and salt to a large bowl and stir to combine. Slowly add the melted chocolate mixture, eggs plus egg yolk, and oil, stirring until well combined. Transfer half of the brownie mixture to the prepared baking dish and top with the marshmallows. In a microwave-safe bowl, heat the peanut butter in the microwave until liquid-like, about 30 seconds. Pour over the marshmallow layer, then top with the remaining brownie batter. The batter is thick and does not need to be perfectly spread over the peanut butter and marshmallow layers.

4. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until cooked through. Let cool completely, remove from the pan, and cut into bars.
