Time 1h20m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 (18 ounce) package fudge brownie mix
½ cup vegetable oil
¼ cup water
2 eggs
⅓ cup flour
¼ teaspoon baking powder
⅛ teaspoon salt
½ cup crunchy peanut butter
⅜ cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons butter, softened
1 egg
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ cup butter
4 cups miniature marshmallows
3 ½ cups crispy rice cereal (such as Rice Krispies®)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Beat brownie mix, vegetable oil, water, and 2 eggs in a bowl until batter is smooth.
  • Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt together in a small bowl.
  • Beat peanut butter, brown sugar, and 2 tablespoons butter together in another bowl with an electric mixer until light and creamy. Beat 1 egg and vanilla into peanut butter mixture until fluffy. Stir flour mixture into peanut butter mixture until just blended.
  • Pour brownie batter in the prepared baking dish. Drop peanut butter mixture by small spoonfuls over the brownie batter.
  • Bake brownies in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of the brownies comes out clean, about 30 minutes; cool.
  • Melt 1/4 cup butter in a large saucepan over medium heat; add marshmallows and stir until marshmallows are melted. Cook mixture until butter and marshmallow flavors are combined, about 2 minutes; remove from heat.
  • Spread 1/3 the marshmallow mixture over the cooled brownies. Stir crispy rice cereal into remaining 2/3 the marshmallow mixture; press in an even layer on top of the brownies. Refrigerate until set, about 15 minutes; cut into squares.
