You know how much I love smore's (see S'more Tarts 2010), so much after having several traditional smore's that summer I thought to make a s'more brownie. Yes, it's been done before but I've never had one and had a huge hankering for brownies.
Brownies take me back to my childhood home when my sisters and I would run around with nothing to do every summer afternoon. My mom would make brownies - she LOVES brownies and would succumb to the power that chocolate had over her. I tell you, she would cut one for me, one for my sis, one for my big sis and one for herself and we all stood there in the kitchen eating hot ewwey, gooey, fudgey brownies straight from the oven. Ah what a delight! The next day we would see the brownie pan washed and in the drying rack like nothing ever happened. What happened to all the brownies? Brownies didn't last more than a day in our house. Same with apple pie (apple pie post coming soon.)
This recipe showcases the chocolate aspect of the s'more. I read many tips from this recipe and they all said that it was difficult to cut the brownies once the marshmallow had melted, sliding right off like cheese does on pizza. With that said, I cut the brownies into perfect squares then topped each one with a marshmallow before putting the tray back in the oven to roast for a few minutes. Try it, kid tested, Mother approved!
