Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, plus more for pan 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder 1 cup packed light-brown sugar 1 large egg, lightly beaten 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, (spooned and leveled) 1/2 cup milk 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 cup mini marshmallows 1 cup coarsely chopped walnuts 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly butter an 8-inch square pan. Line with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on two sides; butter the paper. Set aside.

In a medium saucepan, place butter and cocoa; heat over low, stirring constantly, until butter has melted and mixture is smooth. Remove from heat; stir in sugar, egg, flour, milk, and vanilla until combined.

Spread mixture evenly in prepared pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Remove pan from oven; sprinkle top evenly with marshmallows, walnuts, and chocolate chips. Return to oven, and bake until marshmallows puff, about 3 minutes. Cool to room temperature on a wire rack, about 1 hour. Then refrigerate until topping hardens, about 1 hour. Use paper overhang to lift from pan; cut into 12 bars.

Cook’s Notes Place walnuts in a resealable plastic bag, and use a rolling pin or meat mallet to crush them to desired size. Wrap each bar in a piece of waxed paper for mess-free transport.

    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       01/17/2011   @CandyKay: I think your idea sounds fantastic (we prefer s'mores to rocky road over here anyway). Why couldn't you add those? I say graham away.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       01/17/2011   I used this to dress up some store bought brownies for a company party. Just add the toppings and place in oven like at the end of the recipe.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       01/17/2011   Could you use chopped graham crackers on top instead of chopped walnuts?  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       03/12/2010   Just use equal amount of flour for the cocoa. Like making a blonde.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       03/11/2010   would sub out graham cracker meal for the cocoa,if making for my niece,who HATES chocolate. Then use white chocolate chips. May have to leave out the brown sugar also? Should be interesting!!! J.

    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       03/06/2009   These bars were delicious! Very simple. The instructions are a tad bit different than when they were in the magazine last summer.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       06/12/2008   These are great brownies and are sooo easy to make! The brownie itself is very yummy!  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       06/01/2008   These are easy to make, pretty to look at and yummy to eat!  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       05/28/2008   Cocoa is generally found in the baking aisle while hot cocoa is found in with the beverages. No troubles finding either in our grocery stores. Thanks for a great recipe Nancy from a Wellander.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       05/28/2008   White cocoa does exist. It's usually found as a hot cocoa though. You'd have to adjust the sugar called for in the recipe a little as the cocoa will contain sugar. Try Zingermanns deli or King Arthur flour online. They both carry unique and hard to find baking ingredients. Good luck!  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       05/28/2008   The great thing about cooking is adapting to meet your own needs. Experiment with what you can use and see how it turns out! I know there are white chocolate chips available, but what will you substitute for the cocoa?  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       05/28/2008   I can't have chocolate, do you think we can do this with white chocolate? I use to love rocky road candy, one of my favs. Hopefully someone will respond about the chocolate
