S’mores-Stuffed Brownies :)

My friend’s automatic reaction when he heard this name: “Wait… How do you get s’mores inside the brownies??” 

Hahah.  Well, I found this mouth-watering concoction on Picky Palate (a food blog I recently discovered — and have recently fallen in love with).  This recipe is absolutely genius!  

The brownie has 5 layers (from bottom up):
(1) brownie
(2) graham cracker
(3) Hershey’s milk chocolate
(4) marshmallows
(5) brownie.  

Yep, s’mores are literally sandwiched between two brownie layers!  

Result?  Utter deliciousness. :)

This recipe resulted in a really moist, dense, super-sweet brownie.  The only problem I had was the top brownie layer not cooking all the way through in the center of the pan.  I discovered this when I started slicing the center brownies, and batter started flooding toward everywhere.  If I had baked it any longer to accommodate the top brownie layer, the bottom brownie layer would’ve been over-baked and dry.  So, next time, instead of dividing the batter evenly between the top and bottom brownie layers, I’d definitely go for about 3/4 of the batter on the bottom and 1/4 on top. 

These brownies are really fun and easy to make — and did I mention how absolutely delicious they are??  You can either make the brownie layers from scratch, or you can use brownie mix (no shame; brownie mix is awesome). 

So, if you have the ingredients to make these (s’mores stuff + brownie mix), I recommend you make them immediately.  If you don’t have the ingredients, well, you might want to rush to the nearest grocery store and get them. :)
