Vegan S'mores Brownies
Ingredients
Graham Cracker Crust
- 130 g graham cracker crumbs
- 45 mL butter, melted
- 1.5 tbsp white sugar
Chocolate Brownies
- 60 grams butter
- 85 grams chocolate chips
- 68 mL aquafaba
- 50 grams brown sugar
- 50 grams white sugar
- 60 grams all-purpose flour
- 20 grams cacao powder
- pinch salt
Marshmallow Fluff
- 60 mL aquafaba
- 15 mL maple syrup
- 1/2 tsp xantham gum
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325F.
- To make graham cracker crust, combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix until the butter is evenly distributed.
- Add mixture to a lined and greased load pan. Using a spoon, pack down the crust as firmly as you can. Set aside.
- To make brownies, melt chocolate chips and butter over a double boiler. Once melted set aside to cool.
- In a small bowl combine flour, cacao and salt. Set aside.
- To a stand mixer add aquafaba and both sugars. Starting on low beat the aquafaba, once it starts to get foamy increase slowly to high speed and beat. Beat until everything i creamed together and it's fluffy. It should be about 4x the volume as when it started. Bring the speed to low-medium and slowly drizzle in the melted chocolate. Once incorporated slowly add in the dry mixture until just incorporated.
- Pour mixture over the graham cracker crust and spread into a even layer. Bake in preheated oven for 35 - 37 minutes. You want it a little under-baked so it will be nice and gooey when its out of the oven.
- Once baked set aside to cool.
- To make marshmallow fluff, add all ingredients to a stand mixer and beat on low for 3 minutes, then move to medium for about a minute and slowly over the course of a minute increase the speed to high and beat until fluffy and stiff peaks.
- Once the brownies have cooled, spread the marshmallow fluff over top. Using a torch, toast the top of the marshmallow fluff until golden. If you don't have a torch, you can also do this in the oven on broil on high until just golden - watch very carefully!
- Top with your choice of toppings, slice and serve.
