Marshmallow Brownies

4 oz. unsweetened chocolate, coarsely chopped; or 2/3 c. chocolate chips ( I used milk chocolate)

10 T. butter, cubed

2 c. sugar

4 eggs

1/2 t. kosher salt

1 c. SR flour

3 c. miniature marshmallows

Frosting:

1/2 c. butter

1/3 c. cocoa powder

1/3 c. milk

3 1/2 c. powdered sugar, sifted

Preheat oven to 350. Spray 9x13 pan. Combine chocolate and butter. Microwave on high for 30 second intervals, stirring well after each. Add sugar, eggs, salt and stir in the flour. Pour the batter in the pan and bake 30-35 minutes, until the center comes out clean. Immediately sprinkle marshmallows on top and return to oven for another 3-4 minutes, to allow marshmallows to puff up and become slightly browned. 

Frosting:

In a large saucepan, melt butter, add cocoa powder, and milk over medium heat. Stir until smooth. Remove from heat and whisk in powdered sugar until smooth and no lumps appear. Pour over marshmallow layer, making sure all are covered well. Store in airtight container.
