This time of year our elementary school has the first parent/teacher conferences of the year. To make things a bit nicer for our teachers who endure a much later day at school than normal, I help to arrange food for them in the teacher’s lounge.
These Butterscotch Marshmallow Brownies were my contribution this week. I’m hoping that the teachers enjoyed them half as much as my family did. Goodness knows those amazing humans that spend all day with my children deserve all the brownies in the universe for all that they do each day.
Sure, I’ve made several brownie recipes with marshmallows covering the top, like my infamous Peanut Butter Cup Stuffed S’mores Brownies and my mashup Cherry Cola S’mores Brownies, but the secret to maximum gooey-ness in these Butterscotch Marshmallow Brownies is stirring the marshmallows into the batter before baking.
As the batter bakes and the marshmallows melt, the fudgy-ness factor of these brownies goes through the roof!
Based on my One Bowl Chocolate Fudge Brownies recipe, these Butterscotch Marshmallow Brownies may be the last brownie recipe you’ll ever need. An indulgent, fudge brownie base is studded with miniature marshmallows before being showered with dark chocolate and butterscotch chips.
When they emerge from the oven, all warm and gooey, you’ll be reaching for a knife to cute them with one hand and a large glass of milk with the other.
