Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)
  • 1 cup shredded coconut (sweetened or unsweetened)
  • 1/2 cup marshmallow fluff or mini marshmallows
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease or line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.

2. In a medium bowl, combine the melted butter and granulated sugar. Stir in the eggs and vanilla extract until well combined.

3. Add the cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder, mixing until smooth. Fold in the mini chocolate chips if using.

4. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.

5. Bake for 20–25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Do not overbake. Let cool completely.

6. In a small saucepan, combine the heavy cream, butter, and vanilla extract. Heat over medium-low until hot and butter is melted, but do not boil.

7. Stir in the marshmallow fluff or mini marshmallows and mix until fully melted and smooth. Remove from heat and cool slightly.

8. Spread the marshmallow mixture evenly over the cooled brownies.

9. Sprinkle shredded coconut over the top and gently press to adhere.

10. Refrigerate for about 30 minutes until the topping is set. Slice into squares and serve.

Notes

Use parchment paper for easy removal and cleaner edges.

For a richer taste, use sweetened shredded coconut or lightly toast it before topping.

Chill longer if you prefer a firmer topping.

Mini chocolate chips are optional but add extra chocolate flavor.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
