I am a total brownie fan, but these Rocky Road Brownies, take my love of brownies to a whole new level. They are smothered in chocolatey marshmallow goodness and so easy to make.
There is a delicious restaurant here in Utah called Cafe Zupas. They make delicious soups, salads, and sandwiches, and of course desserts.
You feel super healthy ordering this delicious salad or low-fat soup and then you get to the end of the line to pay and they have all these decadent desserts just waiting for you.
And of course, you have to get one. It just wouldn’t be right if you didn’t.I mean, if you have a healthy meal, you can definitely finish it off with a yummy dessert, right?
The last time I was there, I tried one of their rocky road brownies. This brownie was massive and was topped with chocolate, marshmallows, nuts, and more chocolate.
I dreamed about it all night and decided to recreate it at home.Let’s just say that it worked out pretty well.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I have a pan of brownies that I need to go finish off.

Do these freeze well?
These brownies of course taste best when served fresh, and made the same day.
However, if you have some leftover or plan to serve them at a later date, they can definitely freeze, and freeze nicely.
We recommend placing them in an airtight storage container. You could also place them in a ziplock bag, and squeeze all the air out.
They freeze nicely for about 3 weeks.
To thaw, we recommend removing them from the freezer and placing them on the counter to thaw for about 24 hours.
I still like mine partially frozen in the middle, because I love cold brownies almost as much as I love warm ones. So even after about 4-6 hours, they are definitely edible.

I just tried this recipe last weekend for my friend's kids. They absolutely loved it. I have boxed a separated batch with small pieces to enjoy whenever I have sugar rush. I am cheating when am cutting down calories. But these brownies are absolutely delicious. thank you for your recipe.

This sounds totally delicious, can I make half the size, cutting the recipe in half? For example baking it in an 8 inch or 9 inch square pan?
