RoCKy RoAd BrOwNiEs

{These brownies were made without nuts and with homemade chocolate frosting}


1 cup Butter {room temp}
2 cups Sugar
1/2 cup Cocoa
4 Eggs {slightly beaten}
1 1/2 cups Flour
1/4 teaspoon Salt
1 1/2 cups Chopped nuts*
2 teaspoons Vanilla
Mini Marshmallows
2 king size Chocolate Bars*

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9 x13 pan with cooking spray. In the bowl of an electric mixer combine butter, sugar, and cocoa. Add eggs one at a time. Gradually add flour and salt until combined. Stir in nuts, if wanted. Add vanilla.

Bake for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and cover top with marshmallows. Return to oven for 3 minutes or until melted or slightly golden. Remove from oven and place candy bars on top to melt. Wait until the frosting and brownies are completely cool to cut. Enjoy!

*I make these lots of different ways. They can be made with or without nuts. Sometimes I add the nuts inside and sometimes I just sprinkle them over half the pan on top of the frosting. The other option is the frosting, you can use the candy bars or homemade chocolate frosting, whichever you prefer. If you do use homemade frosting wait until the marshmallows are completely cool to frost.
