Ingredients:
|
For the brownies:
2 pkgs. (about 20 ounces each) brownie mix
2/3 cup water
2/3 cup vegetable oil
4 large eggs
For the icing:
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) butter
5 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
3 3/4 cups confectioners' sugar (about 1 box), sifted
1 jar (7 ounces) marshmallow creme |
| |
|
Directions:
|
1. Make the brownies: Place rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Lightly mist a 13 x 9-inch baking pan with vegetable oil spray. Set the pan aside.
2. Place the brownie mix, water, oil, and eggs in a large mixing bowl and stir with a wooden spoon until the ingredients are incorporated, about 50 strokes, or beat with an electric mixer on low speed for 30 seconds. Transfer the batter to the prepared baking pan, smoothing the top with a rubber spatula.
3. Place the pan in the oven and bake the brownies until the edges have set and the center is still a little soft (press it lightly with a finger), 45 to 50 minutes.
4. Meanwhile, make the icing: Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the milk and cocoa powder, stirring constantly until just boiling, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and add the vanilla and confectioners' sugar, stirring until smooth. Keep the icing warm over low heat.
5. As soon as the brownies come out of the oven, spread the marshmallow creme over the top. Let the creme soften on top of the hot brownies. Then, slowly pour the warm icing evenly over the top of the marshmallow creme and spread with a knife to smooth it out. It does not matter if the marshmallow creme mixes with the icing. Let the brownies cool for 20 minutes before cutting them into bars and serving. |
