How to Make Peppermint Cloud Brownies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease and flour an 8-inch square baking pan. Line the bottom with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on two sides for easy removal.
- In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, 6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate, and 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder. Stir until completely smooth and melted.
- Remove from heat and stir in 1 cup granulated sugar, 2 large eggs, 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/2 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans recommended), 1/4 cup milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Mix until just combined.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 20 minutes.
- Remove from oven and top evenly with 1 cup mini marshmallows.
- Return to oven and bake for another 5 minutes, or until marshmallows are golden brown and puffed.
- Immediately sprinkle with 1/4 cup crushed peppermint candies.
- Let cool completely in the pan.
- Use the parchment paper overhang to lift the brownies out of the pan.
- Cut into squares and serve. Store airtight for up to one day.
