1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 1/2 cups mini marshmallows
3/4 cup chopped walnuts (or pecans)
Instructions

2. Melt butter in a saucepan over low heat, then whisk in both sugars until smooth.
3. Let mixture cool slightly, then add eggs one at a time, followed by vanilla extract.
4. In a separate bowl, mix flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder.
5. Add dry ingredients to wet mixture and stir until just combined.
6. Fold in most of the chocolate chips and chopped nuts.
7. Gently fold in mini marshmallows without overmixing.

9. Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until toothpick comes out with moist crumbs.
10. Cool completely in pan before lifting and slicing into squares.
Notes
Let the melted butter mixture cool before adding eggs to avoid scrambling.
Don’t overmix after adding dry ingredients for the fudgiest texture.
For extra gooeyness, press a few marshmallows on top before baking.
