Description

These easy brownies start with a mix and get layered with a soft, salty topping made from melted chocolate, marshmallows, peanut butter, and peanuts.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (18-ounce) box brownie mix (+ ingredients listed on the box)
  • 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 2 1/2 cups mini marshmallows (divided)
  • 1 cup dry roasted, salted peanuts (divided)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven according to box directions and prepare a 9×9-inch pan as instructed. Mix and bake the brownies as directed. Let cool in the pan for 15–20 minutes.
  2. In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, combine the chocolate chips, peanut butter, and butter. Stir until melted and smooth. Remove from heat and let sit for 5 minutes.
  3. Fold in 2 cups of marshmallows and 3/4 cup of peanuts until evenly combined.
  4. Spread the topping over the slightly cooled brownies.
  5. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 cup of marshmallows and 1/4 cup of peanuts, pressing gently to help them stick.
  6. Let cool completely at room temperature, then refrigerate for 2-3 hours before cutting into squares.
