Marshmallow – Nougat – Brownies

Ingredients for 1 servings:

• 150 g butter
• 150 g nougat
• 100 g chocolate, whole milk
• 3 eggs
• 50 g brown sugar
• 100 g flour
• 1 pinch of salt
• 2 sachets of vanilla extract
• 100 g walnuts, chopped
• 100 g marshmallow(s), chopped

Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Total time approx. 20 minutes

Melt the butter in a saucepan, remove from the heat, and melt the chocolate and nougat in the warm butter, stirring in the vanilla extract. Chop the walnuts and chop the marshmallows (they’ll be quite sticky, but you’ll be able to do this if you rinse the knife with hot water every now and then). In a large bowl, mix the eggs and sugar with a wooden spoon (using a hand mixer will only introduce air into the batter, which isn’t what you want with brownies). Combine the flour and salt in another bowl, add to the eggs, and stir in. Add the butter, nougat, and chocolate mix, and finally fold in the chopped walnuts and chopped marshmallows. Preheat the oven to 160°C (fan/circulating air), pour the batter into a 23x23cm brownie pan, and bake for 30 minutes. The marshmallows will rise considerably in the heat, but the surface will flatten again as they cool. There’s no need to test for doneness; the brownies should be moist inside, so the batter will stick to the skewer anyway. Let the brownies cool for a few minutes, then carefully loosen the edges. The marshmallows will caramelize and be harder to remove once the brownies have completely cooled (but don’t remove them from the pan yet!). Once completely cooled, cut into 10 pieces.
