S'more Brownies

This is the first time in a long time I went forward with a recipe I made up in my head as I attempted to satisfy my craving for chocolate. My parents also grabbed a huge box of like six Ghirardelli mixes from Costco and I felt the need to do something with it.

The last time I made s'more brownies was in my sophomore year of college to thank a friend of mine for moving a birthday gift to my friend Maria's apartment. It was a heavy af artist's drawer set full of supplies and made of heavy wood and I felt so bad, but it was definitely a good birthday present s/o to Safa for arranging it all and finding it.
(Still can't believe I'm a college graduate because I feel like everyone I see on college campuses looks older than me.)

And of course, my family asked me if the marshmallows were halal after I took it out of the oven. Smh

Here's a video I filmed during the process.

Ingredients:

1. Triple Chocolate Ghirardelli Brownie Mix

2. 1 egg

3. 1/3 cup milk

4. 1/3 cup vegetable oil

5. 1/4 cup graham cracker crumbs

6. 4 tbsp melted butter

7. 1/2 cup HALAL marshmallows.

Recipe:

1. Preheat the oven to 350F and follow the recipe for the brownie mix. I don't think I've ever made brownies from scratch because the Ghirardelli mix is just too good to beat. Combine milk, oil, egg, and mix together.

2. Use 4 tbsp melted butter to combine with the cracker crumbs as the base of the brownies. Use your fingers and the back of a spoon to set it in place. 

3. Pour the brownie mix evenly into the pan and use a spatula to even it out more so that placing the marshmallows on top will be a smooth process.

4. EVENLY sprinkle marshmallows on top of the brownie mix, and put it in the oven for 40 minutes.

5. I didn't wait for it to cool for more than 5 minutes, but I'd suggest a 15 minute cooling period before you dig in. :)
