Rocky Road Brownies Recipe

These rocky road brownies are so easy and so good! Come on, everyone knows that you’ve been baking brownies from that same boxed mix for quite a while.

That is not an awful thing, but what about if you could make them a bit more special?

Why not spice up your usual chocolate brownies with a taste that many people love?

Not only are these rocky road brownies fun, easy and have a small number of ingredients, but they also are very popular among those picky kids.

If you would like, it is usually a lot of fun to make these brownies with kids. I make them with my little sister all of the time and we have great fun putting the special treats together.

It is nice because my sister is still too young to actually cook but she always loves putting the marshmallows on top of the brownies. The best part is that you don’t even have to measure the marshmallows so if she spills a few too many over the brownies, it’s not a problem. In fact in some ways, a few extra marshmallows make both of us really happy!

Yield: This makes enough topping for a 9″ x 13″ pan of brownies.

Ingredients:

• 2 cups marshmallows
• 1 Tablespoon butter or margarine
• 1 cup chocolate chips
• 1/2 - 3/4 cup peanut butter

Directions:

1) Prepare and bake brownies as directed. With five minutes left to bake, put marshmallows over brownies and return to the oven for final five minutes.

2) Melt butter, chocolate chips and peanut butter in a saucepan and pour over the melted marshmallows when you remove the brownies from the oven. Swirl the topping mixture. Cool completely on countertop.

3) Once your brownies are complete and you’ve added this special Rocky Road topping, then go ahead and enjoy one… or maybe two!

For whatever occasion, this special dessert is fun, original and so easy to make. So next time you feel the need for some brownies think about this easy recipe and also consider how many times you bring the same dessert to that annual bake sale. Why not mix things up? These rocky road brownies sure are a huge hit with my family and it’s a delicious twist on an old favorite.

Happy baking!
