S'mores Ghost Brownies - S'mores Brownies topped with marshmallow ghosts are a fun, whimsical Halloween dessert that kids and adults alike will love. 

Earlier this year, I mentioned that despite blogging for years, I don’t have a ton of holiday specific recipes on this blog. At that time, I also mentioned that I decided that this year, I was going to change that.

So this week, as a part of Halloween Treats Week, I’m happy to change that. It’s not that I never blogged about Halloween recipes, it’s just that for a while, a group of us had themed Halloween parties, so instead of the typical ghosts, witches, and goblins, you got recipes that were paired with our theme – such as the Almond Brandied Pound Cake in for a Clue-themed Halloween party. (Warning: Photos need to be updated!) Plus, most schools in our area won’t take homemade sweets due to allergies, so it’s not like I was doing a lot of baking for them. But this year, I’ve got two new, traditionally Halloween, semi-homemade recipes for you this week, to help you celebrate the spooky holiday. 

S'mores Ghost Brownies: S'mores Brownies topped with marshmallow ghosts are a fun, whimsical Halloween dessert that kids and adults alike will love. 

First up is S’mores Ghost Brownies. A graham cracker crust, your favorite brownie recipe, and then topped with marshmallow creme and a ghost marshmallow… these brownies take a little extra time to make but are super easy. That s’mores combo is just YUM! I’ll take the chocolate-graham-marshmallow combo over plain old chocolate any day.

Recipe Notes for S’mores Ghost Brownies:

  • You can use a recipe for homemade brownies or a store-bought box of brownie mix in this recipe, as long as it makes enough for a 13 x 9 inch pan. My favorite two recipes are actually this Gluten-Free Almond Dark Chocolate Brownies or these Chocolate Chunk Brownies. Both recipes would need to be doubled to use in the recipe below.

Ingredients

  • cooking spray
  • 1 sleeve graham crackers
  • 1 brownie recipe (all ingredients) enough for a 13x9 inch pan
  • 7.5 oz marshmallow creme
  • 12 marshmallow ghosts such as Peeps

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350F.

  2. Spray a 13x9 inch baking pan with cooking spray. Arrange graham crackers in a single layer around the bottom. There may slight overlap on edges to ensure you get the whole bottom covered. Set aside.

  3. In a bowl, mix together brownies according to directions on recipe or on box. Pour into prepared pan. Use a butter knife to spread brownie mix evenly over graham crackers.

  4. Bake for 20-22 minutes, until cooked throughout. Remove from oven and allow to cool completely.

  5. Once cooled, spread marshmallow creme over prepared brownies and broil for 4-5 minutes, just to toast top.

  6. Allow to cool slightly. Cut. Arrange a marshmallow ghost on top of each piece, securing with a toothpick if it won't stand up straight.

  7. Serve at room temperature.
