The BEST Classic Brownie Recipe

Moist, slightly fudgy and beyond delicious, this classic brownie recipe with homemade maple vanilla marshmallows is perfect for any occasion.

The brownies have a slightly crispy edge with a perfectly moist, semi-fudgy center. They’re light, fluffy and delicious. In fact, this is the brownie mix recipe I use to sell in-store, so I hope you love it as much as I do.

Plus, when you top them with my homemade maple vanilla marshmallows, they taste like a homemade s’mores brownie! Try adding some crushed graham crackers to the top for the full s’mores effect. This classic brownie recipe is so tasty your friends and family are bound to finish the entire pan!
