S’more Brownie Bites

These s’more brownie bites are just perfect for people like me who like small tastes of treats or snacks every once in a while. This recipe used quinoa flour in addition to all-purpose flour thereby resulting in soft and dense brownies. Furthermore, the addition of mini chocolate chips to the batter gives these delicious treats a crunch as well as texture. The first time I made these brownies, I baked them for 14 minutes. It tastes good but the marshmallows melted. So I had to make a second batch but this time I only baked them for 10 minutes. I let it cool for 20 minutes before I had a piece. I ended up with so much; I shared some with my co-workers in one of our meetings.

Serves: 24 brownie bites

Ingredients

• ½ cup unsalted butter
• 1 ¼ cups mini chocolate chips
• ½ cup sugar
• 2 large eggs, at room temperature
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• ½ cup all-purpose flour
• ½ cup quinoa flour (available at any health store)
• ¾ to 1 cup mini marshmallows
• ¼ cup graham cracker crumbs or 4 large graham crackers, finely crushed

Instructions

1. Place an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 24-count mini-muffin pan with paper liners.
2. Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Remove the pan from the heat and add ¾ cup of the mini chocolate chips. Stir until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth. Transfer to a medium bowl and stir in sugar, eggs and vanilla. Gradually beat in the flour until the mixture is thick and smooth. Stir in the remaining mini chocolate chips.
3. Fill each paper liner with a heaping tablespoon of batter. Push 3 mini marshmallows halfway down into the center of the batter. Sprinkle ½ teaspoons of the graham cracker crumbs over the marshmallows. Bake until the marshmallows are puffed and lightly golden, 10-12 minutes. (The marshmallows will melt if you bake over 12 minutes). Cool for 20 minutes and serve.
4. Enjoy!
