Ingredients
Instructions

- Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 20 to 25 minutes.
- Sprinkle marshmallows on top and return to oven for 3 minutes.
- Remove and let cool.
Tips & Substitutions
For extra fudginess, use brown sugar instead of white sugar, or add an extra egg for a richer texture. If you don't have walnuts, pecans or almonds can be a great substitute. Make sure to mix the batter only until combined to avoid tough brownies. Also, for a fun twist, consider adding a layer of mint chocolate chips for added flavor.
Serving Suggestions
These brownies are delightful on their own, but serve them warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an indulgent dessert. Drizzle with chocolate sauce or top with whipped cream for added richness. They pair wonderfully with a cup of coffee or a glass of milk, making them a perfect treat for any gathering.
Storage & Reheating
Store leftover brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. For longer storage, you can freeze them wrapped tightly in plastic wrap and then in foil for up to three months. To reheat, simply microwave for a few seconds until warm, or let them come to room temperature before serving.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a different type of chocolate in this recipe?
Absolutely! You can substitute cocoa powder with melted dark or milk chocolate. Just make sure to adjust the sugar content accordingly since melted chocolate is usually sweeter than cocoa powder.
What can I do if my brownies are too dry?
If your brownies turn out dry, it might be due to overbaking. Always check them a few minutes before the recommended baking time. To add moisture back, consider serving them with a drizzle of simple syrup or a scoop of ice cream.
Can I add other toppings besides marshmallows?
Definitely! Feel free to experiment with toppings such as chopped nuts, chocolate chips, or even a swirl of peanut butter. Adding a layer of caramel sauce before baking can also give a delicious twist to the classic brownie.
