No reviews

These hot chocolate brownies are rich, fudgy treats made with hot cocoa mix, topped with melted chocolate chips and crunchy mini marshmallows.

  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 18 brownies

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 cup high quality hot cocoa mix
  • 2 sticks unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract or paste
  • 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 2/3 cup vanilla marshmallow bits

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350F. Line a 9x13 pan with aluminum foil sprayed with cooking spray. Set aside.
  2. In a small bowl, stir together flour, salt, baking powder, and hot cocoa mix.
  3. In a large bowl, mix together butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Add dry ingredients to wet and stir until just combined. Fold in 1/3 (4 ounces) of the chocolate chips.
  4. Bake uncovered for about 30 minutes, or just until the brownies start to pull away from the edge. Sprinkle remaining chocolate chips onto the hot brownies and let sit for 3-5 minutes. Spread chips into a melted layer using a non-stick spatula and then sprinkle with marshmallow bits.

Notes

Use a high-quality hot cocoa mix that doesn't use powdered milk or other filler ingredients. This recipe was tested using Starbucks brand hot cocoa.

For the marshmallow bits, I use this kind: Jet-Puffed vanilla marshmallow bits
