Marshmallow Dulce De Leche Brownies

Treat yourself to these decadent Marshmallow Dulce De Leche Brownies for a sweet and fluffy treat. These chocolatey brownies are topped with a layer of creamy dulce de leche and marshmallow fluff for the ultimate dessert indulgence.

I feel like I should really name this post roll-over-and-die brownies because you’re going to devour so many of these rich, over the top, sticky, gooey, fluffy bars of deliciousness that you’ll probably roll over and die of brownie overload.

Seriously, they are so rich and fantastic you’ll think you cannot possibly try one more bite and then the next thing you know you’re standing in front of these dulce de leche brownies with fork in hand.

Creating this Recipe

I originally posted this brownies recipe over at BHG Delish Dish blog, and I have to say it was so much fun. Gosh, it was more than 10 years ago now, but I remember making them with our oldest daughter, and I had so much fun teaching her about melting chocolate, picking out toppings, etc. Now she’s off at college making these brownies for her friends and roommates!

If you could drop everything and recreate a memory for your kids what would it be? Would you be willing to create a memory for them or are you too busy?

But seriously, why didn’t I slow down a little more when I was younger? I was in such a hurry to grow up that sometimes I feel almost homesick, no sad, gosh I don’t know how to explain it, but I miss sitting in the kitchen with my Mom, gardening in our ginormous garden and snitching as many raspberries as I could, camping, singing around a fire, etc. Life passed by and now the same is happening for my kids. I hope I can create memories for them like I had growing up.

Ingredients for Dulce de Leche Brownies

You’ll make delicious fudgy brownies first, and then top them with dulce de leche and marshmallow fluff. Here is everything you will need:

• Unsweetened Chocolate: We like Baker’s brand.
• Butter: adds fat and richness to the brownies
• Sugar: regular white granulated sugar
• Eggs: gives the brownies structure
• Vanilla Extract: adds flavor
• Flour: regular all-purpose flour
• Baking Soda: acts as a leavening agent to give the brownies rise
• Mini Semisweet Chocolate Chips: adds more chocolate flavor and texture to the brownies
• Dulce de Leche: grab a can at the store on the baking aisle or make your own at home with sweetened condensed milk
• Marshmallow Creme: any brand will work great
• Chopped Pecans (optional): If you’re not a nut fan, you can use chocolate chips or toffee bits. I love the texture it adds to the brownies.

How to Make Cheesecake Brownies from Scratch

To make cheesecake brownies from scratch you only need basic ingredients like butter, sugar, eggs, flour, cocoa, etc. for the brownies. You’ll also need a few ingredients for the blackberry puree and cream cheese layers. Here are the step-by-step instructions:

Blackberry Puree

1. Combine: add all the ingredients to a saucepan and place over medium-high heat stirring occasionally to break down the blackberries.
2. Strain: pour the puree into a fine mesh strainer over a small bowl and push the blackberries through with a spatula preserving all the liquid and dispose of the solids.
3. Cool: allow the strained puree to cool to room temperature.

Brownies

1. Prep: preheat the oven to 325°F and line a square baking dish with parchment paper.
2. Melt: add the butter to a microwave safe bowl and melt the butter in 30 second increments until completely melted.

Tuxedo Brownie Cups

Brownies stuffed with a creamy white chocolate cream cheese filling and a big juicy strawberry on top. These tuxedo brownie cups are elegant and delicious!

Brownies are delicious and they go with just about any occasion or meal so they are the perfect “go to” dessert when you’ve got a lot going on, but it’s time to give brownies a little dressing up. We made it a black tie affair with these tuxedo brownie bites and I’m so glad we did!

The cream cheese filling is absolutely divine, but really can you EVER go wrong with cream cheese filling? It’s creamy and perfect along with that bold chocolate and the fresh, sweet berry.

Recommended Equipment

• Mini Muffin Pan
• Small Cookie Scoop

Ingredients for Tuxedo Brownie Bites

• Fudge Brownie Mix: Make the brownies following the cake like instructions. You will need eggs, water and vegetable oil.
• White Chocolate: adds a delicious rich flavor to the filling
• Milk: thins out the filling a little and adds creaminess
• Cream Cheese: use full fat cream cheese and make sure it is at room temperature (see section below for avoiding lumps)
• Powdered Sugar: adds sweetness
• Frozen Whipped Topping: adds structure to the filling
• Strawberries: adds flavor and freshness and pairs so well with chocolate
• Orange Zest: This is totally optional but it adds a beautiful depth of flavor. Mint or chocolate could also be used to garnish.

Lumps in Cream Cheese

Remember, when cooking or baking with cream cheese you need to either set it out for a bit so that you can soften the brick, making a smooth spread, or fill a sink with warm water and let it sit, still in its foil until soft. There’s nothing worse than lumpy cream cheese filling and no amount of beating will smooth out those pieces.
