Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (226g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 1/4 cups (250g) granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup (165g) packed light brown sugar
  • 4 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 tbsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (120g) all-purpose flour (or almond flour for gluten-free)
  • 3/4 cup (75g) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup (175g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 1/2 cups mini marshmallows (or chopped regular marshmallows)
  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs (about 8 full sheets crushed)
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted (to mix with graham crumbs)
  • Wood chips or smoking pellets (applewood or hickory recommended)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 10-inch cast iron skillet with butter or non-stick spray.
  2. In a large bowl, beat 1 cup softened unsalted butter with 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar and 3/4 cup light brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Beat in 4 large eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Stir in 1 tablespoon vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, sift together 1 cup all-purpose flour, 3/4 cup cocoa powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  5. Gradually fold the dry mixture into the wet ingredients gently until just combined.
  6. Fold in 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips evenly throughout the batter.
  7. Pour batter into the prepared skillet and spread evenly to about 3/4 inch thickness.
  8. Mix 1 cup graham cracker crumbs with 2 tablespoons melted butter until crumbly but moist. Sprinkle evenly over the brownie batter.
  9. Bake for 30-35 minutes until edges are set and pulling away slightly, and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  10. Remove skillet from oven. Using a smoking gun, infuse the top of the brownie with smoke for 1-2 minutes, covering the skillet with a lid or foil to trap the smoke.
  11. Immediately sprinkle 1 1/2 cups mini marshmallows over the top. Toast marshmallows with a kitchen torch or under the broiler for 1-2 minutes until golden brown and puffed.
  12. Let the skillet cool for about 10 minutes before serving warm directly from the skillet.

Notes

If you don’t have a smoking gun, add a pinch of smoked sea salt to the batter or briefly grill the brownie outdoors for smoky flavor. Watch marshmallows carefully while toasting to avoid burning. Use room temperature eggs for best texture. Season your cast iron skillet regularly for non-stick performance.
