Sno Ball Brownies (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
→ Brownie Mixture
01 -
1 cup sugar
02 -
1/4 teaspoon salt
03 -
2 large eggs
04 -
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
05 -
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
06 -
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
07 -
2 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped
→ Coconut Topping
08 -
3 to 5 drops of pink food coloring
09 -
1 cup shredded coconut, sweetened
10 -
1 tablespoon cornstarch
11 -
1 (7-ounce) jar of marshmallow creme or fluff
# Instructions:
01 -
Set your oven to 325°F. Line a square 8x8 pan with foil, letting it hang over the edges for easy removal later. Lightly coat the foil with nonstick spray.
02 -
In a medium pot over low heat, melt the butter with the chopped chocolate. Stir nonstop until the texture is smooth, then pull it off the heat.
03 -
Stir the sugar into the melted chocolate mixture until everything blends together.
04 -
Whisk the eggs and vanilla extract into the bowl, mixing until everything’s glossy and smooth.
05 -
Gently stir in the flour and salt until combined. Don’t overdo it.
06 -
Pour the chocolate batter evenly into the prepped pan and bake for about 40 minutes. Check doneness by inserting a toothpick—it should come out with some damp crumbs.
07 -
While the brownies are warm, gently smear the marshmallow fluff over the top. The heat will make spreading easier.
08 -
Put the coconut, cornstarch, and food coloring in a food processor. Pulse until the coconut’s texture is a bit finer and the color is blended evenly.
09 -
Scatter the pink coconut over the marshmallow topping, pressing it down lightly so it sticks.
10 -
Let everything cool completely. Then, lift the foil edges to remove the brownies from the pan. Use a sharp, clean knife to cut into 9 pieces, wiping the blade between cuts for clean edges.
# Notes:
01 -
Keep them fresh in a sealed container at room temp for up to 3 days.
02 -
Pop them in the fridge for 30 minutes before cutting for tidier slices.
03 -
These are a homemade twist on Sno Balls, the classic snack cake.
