Recipe: What are Fluffernutter Brownies?
What are Fluffernutter Brownies?
When I was a child as a special treat we were able to have a fluffernutter sandwich. What is a fluffernutter sandwich you might ask.
A fluffernutter is made with peanut butter and marshmallow fluff. Marshmallow fluff comes in a jar and is merely whipped marshmallows.
I would say these are by far the best brownies I have ever made. I have mentioned before that I like a more cake type brownies instead of the now popular gooey brownies.
So how do you make these brownies? Here is the simple to follow recipe.
Recipe for Fluffernutter Brownies:
I used a really good quality dark chocolate and an extra dark cocoa powder but I think you could use your favourite cocoa powder and still get awesome results.
Chocolate brownies with peanut butter and marshmallow fluff
