Disappearing Marshmallow Brownies

On Saturday afternoons when I put my cinnamon rolls into the oven to bake I sometimes quickly mix up a pan of bars or a cake to tag team into the oven right behind the rolls. I'm in the kitchen and the oven is hot anyway.

These are a favorite and I whipped them up this week. I'm sure the guys won't complain. They'll disappear!

Disappearing Marshmallow Brownies

Spray the bottom and sides of a 9 x 13 baking pan.
Melt in a heavy saucepan, 1 cube of butter and 1 cup of butterscotch chips. Stir constantly until melted, then remove and cool until lukewarm.


Add to the butterscotch mixture:
1 1/2 c. flour
2/3 c. brown sugar
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. vanilla
2 eggs
I set all my dry ingredients in a bowl, and that way everything is measured and ready to be added to the buttery stuff.
Mix dry ingredients, eggs and vanilla into the buttery yummy stuff in the saucepan.
Fold in 2 cups miniature marshmallows and 1 cup chocolate chips.

Spread in the pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes. Do not over bake. Center will be jiggty (this is not my word) but become firm upon cooling.

These bars are an old recipe that my Mom got from her Christmas cookie baking friend, Janis. Not sure if jiggty is her word...
A good Spring recipe, it uses up your mini marshmallows left over from Winter's hot cocoa before they get tough.
Enjoy!
