Ingredients:

• 1 cup unsalted butter

• 2 cups granulated sugar

• 4 large eggs

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

• 1 cup all-purpose flour

• 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

• 1/4 teaspoon salt

• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

• 1 cup chocolate chips

• 1 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans)

• 2 cups mini marshmallows

Instructions:

• Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
• Melt Butter and Mix: In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Remove from heat and stir in the sugar until well combined. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
• Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder. Gradually stir the dry ingredients into the butter mixture until just combined.
• Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out with a few moist crumbs.
• Add Toppings: Remove the brownies from the oven and immediately sprinkle the marshmallows, chocolate chips, and chopped nuts evenly over the top. Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes or until the marshmallows are puffed and slightly golden.
• Cool and Serve: Allow the brownies to cool in the pan before cutting into squares.
