Fudgy Peanut Butter Marshmallow Brownies

January 9, 2016 By Betsy Cohen 18 Comments

Fudgy Peanut Butter Marshmallow Brownies are addicting. An easy to follow recipe that bakes up in no time.

Fudgy Peanut Butter Marshmallow Brownies

One of the great debates in my family is whether it is better to eat a fudgy brownie or a cake like brownie. As a general rule, I fall in the fudgy category but rarely do I turn down one with the consistency of a cake.

Peanut butter with marshmallows together is also a combination that I am hard pressed to pass. As we all learned in algebra, if A = B and B = C, then A = C. Meaning that since I love fudgy brownies and I love peanut butter and marshmallows, then I must love Fudgy Peanut Butter Marshmallow Brownies! Wow, my math teachers would be so proud.

Melting the peanut butter with the marshmallows is a great way to incorporate these ingredients. Just be sure to use your spatula to ‘cut’ them into the batter so you do not end up with a giant blob of peanut butter/marshmallow in your brownies.

I shared these with friends over the holidays and had to make another batch because they were eaten so quickly. You may need to keep this in mind if you are inclined to share.

    I think I go for the cakey brownies, but the cake that doesn’t rise a whole lot and gets nice crunchy edge to it 🙂

    Oh, love the marshmallows you added and that the peanuts are from chunky peanut butter! I’ve never been known to turn down brownies 🙂

    I’ve always had a little trouble with math, but I can clearly see your results = some beautiful brownies. They look lovely, and I expect that the marshmallows leave little clouds of goodness in your treats.

    By the way – I’ve never met a Brownie I could pass up.
