S’mores Brownie Bites Recipe

Introduction

These S’mores Brownie Bites combine the classic campfire flavors of graham crackers, marshmallows, and chocolate into a rich, bite-sized dessert. Perfect for parties or a fun treat, they are easy to make and sure to satisfy your sweet tooth.

Ingredients

• 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
• 5 tbsp melted butter
• 1 tbsp sugar
• 1 (18 oz) box brownie mix (batter prepared according to box instructions)
• 12 large marshmallows
• 2 full size Hershey’s chocolate bars

Instructions

1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and grease a mini muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray.
2. Step 2: In a medium mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar.
3. Step 3: Add roughly 1 tbsp of the graham cracker mixture into the bottom of each muffin tin cavity, then use the bottom of a shot glass to press the crumbs into mini crusts.
4. Step 4: Prepare your brownie batter following the directions on the box, then evenly divide the batter among each muffin tin cup. Bake for 20 minutes, then set aside to cool.
5. Step 5: Meanwhile, turn your oven to broil and cut each marshmallow in half. Top each brownie bite with half a marshmallow, cut side down, then broil for 30 seconds, watching closely to avoid burning.
6. Step 6: Immediately top each toasted marshmallow with a square of chocolate, then let cool before removing from the muffin tin and enjoying.

Tips & Variations

• Use flavored brownie mixes like mint or caramel for a fun twist on the classic.
• Substitute chocolate squares with peanut butter cups for extra richness.
• Press the graham cracker crust firmly to ensure it holds during baking.
• Broil marshmallows carefully and keep the oven door slightly open to prevent burning.

Storage

Store the brownie bites in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, refrigerate them for up to a week, though they are best enjoyed fresh. To reheat, warm briefly in the microwave or oven to soften the chocolate and marshmallow.

Ingredients

Scale 1x2x3x

Graham Crust

• 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
• 5 tbsp melted butter
• 1 tbsp sugar

Brownie Batter

• 1 (18 oz) box brownie mix (prepared according to box instructions)

Topping

• 12 large marshmallows
• 2 full size Hershey’s chocolate bars

Instructions

1. Prepare the Oven and Pan: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and grease a mini muffin tin thoroughly with non-stick cooking spray to ensure easy removal of the brownie bites later.
2. Make Graham Cracker Crust: In a medium mixing bowl, combine 1 cup graham cracker crumbs, 5 tablespoons melted butter, and 1 tablespoon sugar. Mix until the crumbs are evenly moistened.
3. Form Crust in Muffin Tin: Spoon roughly 1 tablespoon of the graham cracker mixture into the bottom of each muffin tin cavity. Use the bottom of a shot glass or similar object to firmly press the crumbs into compact mini crusts that will hold their shape.
4. Prepare Brownie Batter and Bake: Prepare the brownie batter according to the instructions on the box. Then, evenly divide the batter among the muffin cups, filling each over the graham crust. Bake the brownies at 350°F for 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out with moist crumbs. Remove from oven and set aside to cool slightly.
5. Toast Marshmallows Under Broiler: Increase the oven temperature to broil. Cut each large marshmallow in half horizontally. Place one marshmallow half, cut side down, on top of each brownie bite. Place under the oven broiler for about 30 seconds, watching carefully for the marshmallows to toast golden brown without burning.
6. Add Chocolate Topping: Immediately after removing from the broiler, place a square of Hershey’s chocolate on top of each toasted marshmallow so it begins to melt. Allow the brownie bites to cool before gently removing them from the muffin tin and serving.

Notes

• Watch the marshmallows closely when broiling as they can burn quickly.
• You can use homemade brownie batter if preferred instead of a boxed mix.
• For easier removal, allow the brownie bites to cool completely before removing from the muffin tin.
• Storage: Keep any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
• To make cutting marshmallows easier, use a serrated knife and wipe it clean between cuts.
