Ingredients

Scale

Base Layer

  • 5 whole graham crackers

Brownie Batter

  • 1 box Ghirardelli brownie mix
  • ¼ cup water
  • ¼ to ½ cup vegetable oil (refer to brownie mix instructions for exact amount)
  • 1 large egg

Toppings

  • ½ cup semisweet or dark chocolate chips
  • 1 ¼ cups mini marshmallows

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare the Pan: Preheat your oven to 325°F. Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with foil and lightly spray it with nonstick cooking spray to ensure easy removal of the brownies later.
  2. Arrange Graham Crackers: Place the graham crackers in a single layer on the bottom of the prepared pan. You may need to break one along the perforated lines so they fit snugly and evenly as the base layer.
  3. Prepare Brownie Batter: In a mixing bowl, prepare the brownie batter according to the instructions on the Ghirardelli brownie mix box using the specified water, vegetable oil, and egg. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  4. Spread Brownie Batter: Pour and spread the prepared brownie batter evenly over the graham cracker layer in the pan, covering all crackers completely.
  5. Bake Initial Layer: Bake the brownies in the preheated oven for 35 minutes. This step cooks the batter and allows the bottom layer to set.
  6. Add Toppings: Upon removing the brownies from the oven, immediately sprinkle the semisweet or dark chocolate chips evenly over the top, followed by an even layer of mini marshmallows.
  7. Final Bake: Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes or until the marshmallows have puffed up and are lightly browned on top, creating that signature toasted s’mores look and flavor.
  8. Cool and Serve: Remove the pan from the oven and cool the brownies on a wire rack for about 20 minutes. Cut into squares and serve warm or at room temperature for best enjoyment.

Notes

  • Using Ghirardelli brownie mix yields a rich, fudgy texture, but you can substitute your preferred brownie mix if desired.
  • Adjust the amount of vegetable oil based on the brownie mix instructions for best consistency.
  • Line the pan with foil and spray it to make removal and cleanup easier.
  • Serving warm enhances the gooey texture of the marshmallows and chocolate chips.
