S’more Brownie Bites

I make these S'more Brownie Bites whenever I want something cute, gooey, and totally Instagram-worthy without spending all day in the kitchen.

Honestly, anything s'mores-related is my weakness. I've made these for movie nights and last-minute get-togethers, and they always disappear before I can even grab a second one.

You're going to love these because they're quick, adorable, and totally beginner-friendly. The graham cracker crust adds just enough crunch, the brownie is soft and fudgy, and the toasted marshmallow on top makes every bite feel cozy and nostalgic.

Things to Know Before Making S'more Brownie Bites

• Add a thin, even graham cracker layer so each bite gets that classic s'mores flavor.
• Let the brownie mixture cool before adding the eggs so they don't scramble.
• Watch the marshmallows under the broiler closely. They toast fast.
• Use a mini muffin pan for perfect bite-size treats.

I love these because they're cute, cozy, and feel way fancier than the effort it takes to make them. They're basically the definition of lazy girl baking that still looks impressive.

How to Make S'more Brownie Bites

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350°F and spray a mini muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray so the brownie bites release easily once they cool.

Step 2: In a medium skillet, melt the butter and sugar over medium heat, whisking until the mixture becomes smooth and glossy.

Step 3: Whisk in the cocoa powder and vanilla extract, remove from heat, then transfer the mixture to a large mixing bowl. Let it cool for about 10 minutes.

Step 4: Whisk in the eggs until the batter is completely combined. Fold in the flour and salt gently until just mixed so the brownies stay soft and fudgy.

Step 5: Add a thin layer of crushed graham crackers to each muffin cup. Spoon brownie batter over the graham layer, filling each cup almost to the top.

Step 6: Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. While they're still warm, use the back of a spoon to make a small indent in the center of each brownie bite.

Step 7: Top each brownie with mini marshmallows and place the pan under the broiler for 30 seconds to 1 minute, watching closely until the marshmallows are perfectly toasted.

Step 8: Press a piece of chocolate and a sprinkle of crushed graham cracker into the warm marshmallow. Let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes before moving them to a wire rack.

Substitutions and Variations

• Use dark chocolate bars for a richer flavor.
• Add peanut butter chips for a Reese's-style twist.
• Swap graham crackers for Oreo crumbs for a cookies-and-cream vibe.
• Add a drizzle of caramel on top for extra sweetness.

What to Serve with S'more Brownie Bites

These pair perfectly with cozy drinks like hot chocolate, peppermint mocha, or a creamy vanilla latte. They also make the cutest addition to dessert boards or holiday treat trays.

Storage and Freezing

Store leftover brownie bites in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. If you want the marshmallows soft again, microwave each bite for 5 to 8 seconds. Freezing isn't recommended once the marshmallows are added.

FAQs

How do I keep brownie bites from sticking to the pan?

Spraying the muffin pan generously with nonstick spray helps them release cleanly. You can also use mini muffin liners.

Why did my marshmallows burn?

Marshmallows toast extremely fast. Keep the oven door slightly cracked and watch them the entire time.

Can I use boxed brownie mix instead?

Yes. Use your favorite boxed mix and follow the same assembly steps to make these even faster.

Why are my brownie bites dry?

They were likely overbaked. Check them at the 12-minute mark for the best soft, fudgy texture.
