S’mores Brownies

Brownie Squad Part #1

A series of of brownie recipes will be introduced and with your help we will decide on the ULTIMATE brownies.

Brownies are sacred in this household. My brother was the first to join the ‘Brownie squad’, the second was my husband, my sister in law, the fourth is my son.

I have been recently drafted to the ‘Brownie squad’ after my second pregnancy. Sweets were something I just never stopped craving!

My friends, there will be a series of brownie recipes I will introduce to you. These have been tried and tested so many times that I grow sick and weary just thinking of all the calories devoured!

S’mores brownies fill the home with the sweetest aroma and these are serious brownies. There is no joking around with them. They are on a mission to fill you with chocolatey goodness. 

These brownies hit the top three list. Which is not an easy feat!

ENJOY! Let me know how these fair with your lot and consider this a formal invitation to the ‘Brownie squad’.

This recipe has been altered but the original inspiration has been drawn from the book ‘Home Baked Comfort’.

Hera’s Pinch

If you are looking for just a wonderful brownie base recipe, eliminate the marshmellows and graham crackers.

S’mores were first introduced in their true form in 1927 in a Girl’s Scouts handbook.
