Confession: I have never made a brownie before. Actually, I should say I have never successfully made a brownie before. I have tried numerous times but the middle it always not cooked through and I always get mad and just give up. But then these happened. These soft and delicious brownies came into creation after a company that was featured at the Texas Veggie Fair sent me a box full of their vegan products, one of which being marshmallows. I then decided to try brownies one last time, and they came out being the best, most addictive I have ever eaten.

Recipe: Gooey Peanut Butter Marshmallow Brownies

What You Need:

1/2 cup flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup light brown sugar
1 stick unsalted butter, melted
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 tablespoon vanilla extract
1/3 cup creamy peanut butter
1 & 1/2 cups marshmallows

What To Do:

1. Preheat the oven to 350 F.

2. Cream together the eggs and sugars.

3. Add all remaining ingredients except for marshmallows.

4. Gently stir in the marshmallows. Do not worry about them being fully incorporated into the batter, as they will rise to the top while baking.

5. Pour the batter into a generously greased 8×8 baking dish. Bake for 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the brownies comes out clean.

6. Let cool before slicing.

I have a love-hate relationship with one of the cooks at work. Actually, up until a few weeks ago it was a very strict hate-only relationship. Usually my nights consist of him telling me to run food that is not mine, and me trying to fly through the tiny expo window to slap him for it. However, after an exceptionally awful evening last month I arrived at work and was told these were in the break room. He had made them for fun and they were mine if I wanted. I bit into the pancakes, assuming they would be awful and it was some kind of cruel joke. Only it wasn’t a joke at all. It was a masterpiece. I spent several mornings trying to recreate the flavors that warmed my heart (and my tummy) so I could share it with you. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Chocolate Chip-Bacon Pancakes.

These indulgent beauties are actually fairly simple to make – basic pancake mix with an addition of chocolate chips and crumbled bacon, poured out onto a skillet and then served on a plate with some sweet, sweet toppings. If you’re more of a maple syrup person feel free, but I think the chocolate syrup gives the melted chips and crispy bacon the extra pop your breakfast needs!

Recipe: Chocolate Chip Bacon Pancakes

Makes 6 – 8 pancakes

What You Need:

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 cup sugar
2 eggs
3/4 cup milk
2 tablespoons EVOO
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
5 pieces bacon, cooked and crumbled
chocolate syrup and whipped cream for topping, optional
What To Do:

1. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat

2. Mix together flour, sugar, and baking soda.

3. Add in the milk, eggs, and oil until the batter is smooth.

4. Slowly mix in the chocolate chips and bacon pieces until evenly distributed.

5. Pour batter onto the skillet and let cook until the mix begins to bubble. Flip the pancakes over and cook an additional minute.

6. Repeat the process until all of the batter is gone.

7. Stack them high and add toppings, if desired!
