S'mores brownies

It's a well-known fact that I hate camping.  Why would I want to sleep on the hard ground, fighting off bugs, when I have a perfectly comfy bed at home?  But I do like camp food.  Especially s'mores. I've even been known to make them in the microwave.  Then a friend gave me this brownie recipe, and I fell in love. They're full of all the things that make s'mores so irresistible, and an easy way to bring summertime in the house on a cold winter's day.


Here's what you'll need:
1 box fudge brownie mix, 9x13 size, plus ingredients to make "fudgy" brownies
1 sleeve graham crackers
1 c mini marshmallows
1/2 c mini chocolate chips
1/2 c chopped peanuts, optional

Preheat oven to 350.  Spray 9x13 pan with cookie spray.

Line pan with graham crackers, breaking to fit, if necessary.  Set aside.


Mix brownie batter using directions on the box.  Carefully spread over the graham crackers in the pan.


Bake at 350 for 20 minutes, until mostly set, but still a little wet in the center.  Remove from the oven and sprinkle with the marshmallows.


Then sprinkle with the chocolate chips and peanuts, if using.


Bake an additional 8-10 minutes, until marshmallows begin to brown, and a toothpick comes out clean. Cool completely before serving.  To make it easier to cut, spray the knife with non-stick cooking spray, or frequently run under cold water.

Enjoy!
