Gooey Toasted S’mores Brownies 🍫 @larabuchar

INGREDIENTS
For the graham cracker crust:
2 cups graham cracker crumbs (about 10 graham crackers)
¾ cup unsalted butter, melted

For the brownies:
4 Tbsp unsalted butter, cold
4 oz bittersweet chocolate, chopped
½ tsp espresso powder, optional
2 Tbsp cocoa powder
½ cup all-purpose flour
¼ tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
2 eggs
¼ cup canola oil
¾ cups granulated sugar
¼ cup packed brown sugar
1 tsp pure vanilla extract

For s’mores topping:
1 cup mini marshmallows
1 Hershey’s chocolate bar
2 graham crackers, broken into pieces
Flaky salt, for sprinkling

DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 350°F and line a 9×9-inch square pan with parchment paper.
For the graham cracker crust, in a large bowl combine graham cracker crumbs and melted butter.

Press graham cracker mixture into prepared pan in a flat, even layer, and set aside.
For the brownie batter, in a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt butter and bittersweet chocolate until melted and smooth. Remove from the heat, mix in espresso powder and add let cool slightly.

In a small bowl, whisk together cocoa powder, flour, baking powder, and salt, stirring until combined.

In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, oil, sugars, and vanilla. Add the slightly cooled chocolate mixture and whisk until smooth. Add in flour mixture and mix until just combined. Pour batter into prepared pan with graham cracker crust and bake 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out with crumbs.

Remove from oven and sprinkle with mini marshmallows, graham cracker pieces and Hershey’s chocolate. Turn oven to broil and broil brownies on high for 1-2 minutes or until marshmallows have just toasted.

Transfer the pan to a wire rack and let cool completely before cutting into squares.
