Ingredients
  

  • 1 box brownie mix plus ingredients listed on the box — usually eggs, oil, and water
  • 6 –8 graham crackers broken into pieces
  • 1 ½ cups mini marshmallows
  • ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • A pinch of salt optional, but it makes the chocolate pop
  • Butter or non-stick spray for greasing the pan

Method
 

Step 1: Preheat the oven
  1. Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8x8-inch baking pan or cast-iron skillet.
Step 2: Make the graham cracker base
  1. Lay the graham cracker pieces on the bottom of the pan. It’s okay if they overlap or break a little — they’ll form a crunchy base.
Step 3: Mix the brownie batter
  1. Prepare your brownie mix following the package instructions. Stir in the chocolate chips and a pinch of salt.
Step 4: Pour and spread
  1. Pour the brownie batter right over the graham crackers. Use a spatula to spread it evenly across the pan.
Step 5: Bake the brownies
  1. Bake for 25–30 minutes, until the top looks set but still slightly soft in the center. Don’t overbake — fudgy is the goal!
Step 6: Add marshmallows
  1. Take the pan out of the oven. Sprinkle mini marshmallows over the top and return it to the oven on broil for 1–2 minutes. Keep an eye on it — marshmallows toast fast.
Step 7: Cool and slice
  1. Let the brownies cool for about 15 minutes before cutting. This helps them set while staying gooey inside.

Notes

  • You can use any boxed brownie mix, but Ghirardelli Double Chocolate gives great flavor and texture.
  • To make them extra fudgy, reduce baking time by 3 minutes.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 days or in the fridge for up to 5 days.
  • If using large marshmallows, cut them in half so they melt evenly.
