Brownie-Mallow Bars Recipe

I have been using a recipe for these bars for over 20 years, although it's known by a different name. The only difference is that I use milk chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet, as I prefer them. I always follow the directions on the brownie mix package, as package sizes can vary. This dessert is a hit with those who enjoy rich, gooey, and decadent sweet treats, and it can be made easily with common pantry ingredients. Once the bars have set, there's no need to store them in the refrigerator.

The recipe is incredibly simple and results in a deliciously rich outcome. The semi-sweet chips add the perfect balance of sweetness. Be mindful that the "topping" significantly increases the thickness, so cutting small slices is recommended. To achieve clean slices, ensure that the topping has set properly. I utilized Duncan Hines Dark Chocolate Fudge mix, adhering to the "low-fat" variation by substituting oil with applesauce, along with Jif Natural peanut butter. Thank you for sharing this recipe! I've been searching high and low for it ever since my husband couldn't stop praising the brownies a colleague brought to work.

I have been making these treats for the past two years to give to my friends and neighbors during the holiday season, and they always receive rave reviews. They are incredibly gooey and delicious, with the perfect crunch from the rice crispy topping that takes them to the next level! I highly recommend using Betty Crocker's fudge brownie mix and slightly underbaking them so that adding marshmallows on top won't overcook the brownies. Be sure to cover the entire brownie mix with marshmallows to avoid any mess when they are baked. Let the brownies cool thoroughly before adding the chocolate/peanut butter topping to ensure the marshmallows stay in place. This recipe is a winner!

I tried the Ghiradelli brownie mix and followed the instructions on the box, using oil, eggs, and water as directed. I decided to use a 9x13 pan instead of the recommended 9x9, concerned that they might turn out too thin, but they turned out perfectly. The brownies were easy to make and a hit with everyone. I followed the recipe by adding semi-sweet chocolate chips, and storing them in the fridge kept the marshmallow soft and gooey. I will definitely make this recipe again!

Delicious flavor! I prepared the Ghirardelli Chocolate Supreme mix following the instructions on the box. Opted for semi-sweet chips and, to my delight, everyone found it sufficiently sweet. However, aside from myself, others felt there was an excess of peanut butter (which I personally found just right). Baked the marshmallows for only 3 minutes in the oven. The batch yielded plenty and I'll be enjoying this treat for the next few days.

Super simple to prepare and a hit with everyone! I decided to use fewer marshmallows than the recipe suggested because I was concerned about fitting everything in my pan, and I'm glad I did. I also increased the amount of crispy rice by almost double, which gave it a nice extra crunch. My colleagues devoured this treat in no time!

This recipe is incredibly simple to follow and absolutely delicious! I prepared these treats for a homecoming event at my church, and despite the variety of desserts available, only two pieces were left to take home. The leftovers didn't last long either. I melted the chocolate chips and peanut butter in the microwave which worked perfectly.

Next time, I won't include peanut butter and will double the brownie recipe.

I opted for a rich dark chocolate brownie mix paired with dark chocolate chips for my baking. In a pinch, crushed rice squares make a great substitute for rice krispies.

I prepared these brownies myself and they turned out delicious! Normally, I bake boxed brownie mix in an 8"x 8" pan, but this time I opted for a 9" x 13" pan and it worked out perfectly due to the toppings. I added walnuts to the batter and substituted Rice Cereal in the chocolate/peanut butter topping with crushed lightly salted ridged potato chips. The batch was large enough to share with my family members, and they all loved this simple recipe! Thumbs up all around!

These were a hit with everyone! I wouldn't make any changes to this recipe.

God help us. I made them. But what else was I gonna do?? It's the pandemic. My partner and I have been under "Shelter in Place" for over a month. Apart from repainting the house, I've been trying out all the recipes I've wanted to make. These Ooey gooey SWEET decadent treats were pure happiness. I used Brook's Bombshell Brownie recipe for the base and followed the instructions closely. I absolutely adore the different textures! Make sure to let those marshmallows cool completely before spreading the peanut buttery chocolate crispy goodness on top. Warning: This dessert is not for those who shy away from sweetness.

Delicious and sticky! These were a big success! The recipe is quick and doesn't take up too much time. I didn't let the brownies and marshmallows cool completely, but they still came out fantastic. It's a pretty adaptable recipe too. Absolutely love it!

I prepared this dessert for a church Bible study group and it was a hit with everyone. Just be ready for a rich treat if you choose to make it "chewy" by using the brownie mix with 3 eggs.

Delicious! I increased the amount of the crispy topping because I prefer a thicker layer.

Delicious potential...I ended up baking the marshmallows for too long, which resulted in the bars being difficult to cut and eat:(. I've learned my lesson...next time, I'll get it right because they are delicious otherwise.

Absolutely scrumptious!

OH MY GOODNESS! We are making these for the second time! The absolute best brownies ever!!!!!

These treats were a huge hit in the office. They were simple to prepare, but they tended to become overly gooey if not stored in the refrigerator.
