Irresistible Rocky Road Brownie Cake

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Brownie Base

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×13 inch baking pan.
2. Melt the butter: In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in the granulated sugar until well combined.
3. Add eggs and vanilla: Stir in the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add the vanilla extract and mix until smooth.
4. Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder.
5. Mix wet and dry: Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
6. Bake: Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

Step 2: Add Rocky Road Topping

1. Remove from oven: Once the brownies are done baking, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly.
2. Add toppings: While the brownies are still warm, sprinkle the chocolate chips, mini marshmallows, and chopped nuts evenly over the top.
3. Melt the toppings: Return the pan to the oven for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the marshmallows are puffed and the chocolate chips are melted. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.

Step 3: Serve

1. Drizzle with chocolate syrup: Once the cake has cooled, drizzle chocolate syrup over the top if desired.
2. Cut and enjoy: Cut the brownie cake into squares and serve. Enjoy the gooey, chocolatey goodness!
