S’mores with Double Chocolate Brownies

Whether you are headed camping, or taking the family to the cottage up north, no weekend of outdoor fun would be complete without some smores. Our S’mores with Double Chocolate Brownies is the ultimate decadent dessert to cap off a day of adventure with a delicious snack. 

Our Oval Au Gratin Dish is the ideal piece of cookware for this recipe, exposing the brownie batter to a consistent heat source until it bakes evenly. Ideally, the brownies can be prepared in advance before roasting the marshmallows over an open fire. The combination of the decadent brownies with the nutty and buttery flavours of the roasted marshmallows is sure to bring you all the way back to your childhood! 

So, huddle around a fire, tell your favorite stories, and enjoy our S’mores with Double Chocolate Brownies this summer! This recipe can be prepared in just over an hour, serving up to four portions at a time. Here are all the ingredients you’ll need along with the steps to follow before tackling this recipe! 

Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Butter 4 Mini Oval Au Gratin Dishes.

In a bowl set over a double-boiler, or in a microwave, gently melt the dark chocolate and butter. Remove from the heat and let cool for 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, in another bowl, combine the graham crumbs, cocoa powder and salt.

Whisk the brown sugar into the cooled chocolate mixture for 1 minute. Whisk in the egg until thoroughly combined. Add the dry ingredients and mix with a Spatula just until the dry ingredients are moistened.

Divide the brownie batter among the Au Gratin Dishes and smooth out in an even layer. Sprinkle with the milk chocolate. Bake on the centre rack of the oven for 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the centre of a brownie comes out almost clean.

Remove from the oven and let sit for 5 minutes. Place the oven rack in the top third of the oven and set to broil.

Arrange the marshmallow halves, cut side down, over the brownies. Return to the top rack of the oven and broil until the marshmallows are nicely toasted (keep an eye on them so that they don’t burn).

Cut each brownie into 4 pieces. Serve sandwiched between two graham crackers.

Note

The brownies can be baked in advance and stored in the Au Gratin Dishes In this case, cover the cooled brownies tightly in plastic wrap. The marshmallows can be roasted over an open fire and added to the brownies at the last minute.
