Ingredients

Graham Cracker Crust:

  • 1.5 packages graham crackers ~2 cups crumbs or a half a box
  • 1 stick salted melted butter 113 g
  • ¼ cup granulated ugar 50 g

Brownies:

  • 1 batch of 9x13 brownies our recipe is below or even a box mix will work!

Marshmallow icing:

  • 4 egg whites
  • 1 cup sugar 200 g
  • ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla or 1 tablespoon vanilla bean paste

Instructions

Graham cracker crust:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F
  • In a food processor or with a ziploc bag/rolling pin, grind 1 package of graham crackers until fine
  • As soon as the crackers are fine, combine with melted butter and ¼ cup sugar
  • Mix together until it is a consistent mixture
  • Pour the crust into a parchment lined 9x13 pan
  • Press the mixture down with your fingers until it forms an even, compact layer
  • Bake for 15 minutes and set aside to cool while you make the brownies

Brownies:

  • Preheat the oven and mix brownie batter according to brownie instructions
  • Pour the brownie batter over the graham cracker crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
  • Bake according to instructions.
  • Let cool completely on a wire rack.

Marshmallow icing:

  • Use a double boiler or create one using a bowl and pan. Fill the pan with ~1” warm water and place a bowl over the pan so it can heat the egg whites with the steam, but it should not touch the bottom
  • Add egg whites, sugar, and cream of tartar to the bowl. Place the bowl over the warm water. The pan should not touch the bottom but be heated by the steam
  • On low, heat the egg white mixture stirring constantly until gently warmed and the sugar is dissolved. Be very careful at this stage to not let the egg whites cook. Scrape the sides of the pan, stir constantly, and remove when sugar dissolves
  • Once dissolved, whip the egg whites on high until stiff peaks form. The mixture will be very glossy and thick. When you place the whisk into the eggs and pull up, it should create a peak. Once it reaches this point, add in the vanilla
  • Top the brownies with the icing and blow torch them for a toasted marshmallow topping and true s’mores taste! If you don’t have a blowtorch, place them on broil in the oven for 1-2 minutes until golden on top (keep a close eye on them)
