Ingredients
  

Chocolate Frosting:

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly spray a 9 x 13" pan with non-stick baking spray. Set prepared pan aside.
  • In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar and salt. Whisk together to combine. Set aside.
  • To a mixing bowl add the melted butter and cocoa powder. Using a hand or stand mixer, mix the butter and cocoa until completely combined and smooth. Add in the eggs and vanilla and mix well.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients a few spoonfuls at a time. Stop the mixer occasionally to scrape down the sides of the bowl. Once all ingredients are combined, the batter will be very thick.
  • Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 25-28 minutes or until a toothpick inserted to the center of the brownies comes out clean and crumb-free. Remove from oven and let brownies cool completely to room temperature before frosting.
  • For the frosting: in a sauce pan, add the sugar, marshmallow, chocolate chips, milk and butter. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring frequently. Once all the ingredients have melted together, remove from heat. Let the frosting cool for 3-5 minutes before pouring over the brownies. Let the frosting set up and cool completely, for at least an hour. Once frosting is set, cut brownies into 20 squares.

Notes

Storage: Brownies do not need to be refrigerated. Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature. They will keep for up to 5 days.
Freezing: Brownies can be frozen. Wrap individually or store brownies in a freezer bag sealed tightly, and with air removed from bag. Brownies will keep for 3 months frozen. Thaw at room temperature.
