S'mores Brownie Bites

Ingredients:

For the graham cracker base

• 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
• 1/3 cup melted butter
• 1/4 cup brown sugar

For the brownie bites

• 1/2 cup dark chocolate, roughly chopped
• 1 cup butter
• 1/4 cup cocoa powder
• 2 teaspoons vanilla
• 3 eggs
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 package Smash Mallow Toasted Vanilla Marshmallows (or other marshmallows)
• 24 Ghirardelli chocolate squares

Instructions:

For the graham cracker base

1. Stir together together the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter and brown sugar until well-mixed.
2. Line a 24 cup mini muffin tin with mini muffin papers. Add about a teaspoon of the graham cracker mixture to the bottom of each cup. Use your fingers, the back of a measuring spoon or a tart tamper to press the crumbs into the bottom of each cup until firmly packed.

For the brownie bites

1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
2. Melt the butter and chocolate together in 30 second increments, stirring after each until smooth. Set aside to cool for about 5 minutes.
3. Whisk together the dry ingredients.
4. Stir together the cooled chocolate, sugar, eggs and vanilla in a separate bowl.
5. Add the dry ingredients and stir to combine.
6. Spoon evenly into the prepared mini muffin tin on top of the graham cracker base to fill each cup about 3/4 of the way.
7. Bake 12-13 minutes or until a toothpick comes out of the center with just a little bit of chocolate on in. Let cool for a few minutes in the tin before removing the brownie bites to cool the rest of the way.
8. Top cooled brownie bites with one marshmallow, toast with a kitchen torch (or roast your marshmallow over a fire or the stove first) and top with a Ghirardelli chocolate square of your choosing.
