Equipment

  • Mixing Bowls
  • Baking Pan
  • Parchment Paper
  • Measuring Cups and Spoons

Ingredients

  • 1 box brownie mix plus box ingredients
  • 75 grams marshmallows or more

Instructions

  • Make and bake your brownie batter according to the box instructions and allow them to cool completely.
  • Once cool enough to remove from the pan, place on a cutting board or wire rack then prepare your marshmallows
  • On low, in a microwave safe bowl, melt marshmallows until soft and gooey; it should take about 20-30 seconds. They will likely still hold their shape, and you can stir them up and they look meltier.
  • Once cooled enough to handle, using your fingertips, grab some marshmallow and slowly spread your hands and fingers apart to create a web design (note: you may want to lightly grease your fingertips to allow the marshmallow to come away from your hands easier).
  • Repeat until you have your desired look.

Notes

  • Marshmallow Tip: Spread the marshmallow from edge to edge, and pull down, to use the sides to break away from sticking to your fingers.
  • Marshmallows: The marshmallows should be warm and stretchy, not piping hot. If the marshmallow becomes too firm, warm it for a few more seconds in the microwave.
  • Work Quickly: Work quickly, as the marshmallow becomes harder to stretch as it cools.
  • Clean Slices: For cleaner slices, let the webs set and then grease your knife between cuts.
  • Styling Tip: Cut into individual brownies prior to, for easier slicing, and to pull webs down the sides of each piece.
 
  • Nutritional Info: Will vary based on how the brownies are prepared and how much marshmallow used.
