Ingredients

Scale

For the brownie base:

1 cup butter (2 sticks), melted

2 cups sugar

4 eggs

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/4 tsp salt

For the heavenly hash topping:

3 cups mini marshmallows

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

1/2 cup chopped almonds or pecans

For the chocolate glaze:

1/4 cup butter

1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/4 cup milk

2 cups powdered sugar

Splash of vanilla extract

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking pan.
In a large bowl, stir together melted butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla until smooth.
Whisk in cocoa powder, flour, and salt until just combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 25–30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out with a few fudgy crumbs.
Immediately sprinkle the warm brownies with marshmallows, chocolate chips, and chopped nuts.
Return the pan to the oven for 2–3 minutes, just until the toppings start to melt.
Meanwhile, prepare the glaze by melting butter, cocoa powder, and milk in a small saucepan over medium heat.
Remove from heat and stir in powdered sugar and vanilla until smooth.
Drizzle the glaze evenly over the marshmallow topping.
Let the brownies cool completely before slicing and serving.

Notes

Substitute any preferred nut or omit for a nut-free version.

For extra richness, use dark chocolate chips or add a handful of peanut butter chips.

Store-brand ingredients work great and keep this dessert budget-friendly.

Allow brownies to fully cool before slicing for cleaner cuts.
