S'mores Brownies
ACTIVE 30 MIN. TOTAL 1 HR.
PLUS COOLING + SERVES 8 TO 10
1 Make crust: Heat oven to 350°F. Butter 8-in. square ceramic or glass baking dish; line with 2 strips parchment paper to create overhang on all 4 sides; generously butter parchment.
2 In food processor, pulse graham crackers, sugar, and salt to form fine crumbs. Add butter and pulse to combine. Press into bottom of prepared pan and bake until fragrant and just set, 10 min. Let cool at least 15 min.
3 Make brownie batter: Sift together cocoa and flour: set aside. In microwave-safe bowl, melt butter and 6 oz chocolate in 30-sec. intervals, stirring in between, until melted and smooth. Whisk in sugar, salt, and vanilla. Whisk in eggs. 1 at a time, waiting until each is combined before adding next egg. Fold in flour mixture until just combined, then fold in remaining 3 oz chopped chocolate.
4 Pour batter into pan and spread evenly over crust. Bake until toothpick inserted into center comes out with slightly moist fudgy crumbs attached, 35 to 40 min. (be careful not to overbake). Let cool in pan 1 hr., then use overhangs to transfer to cutting board or platter.
5 Make meringue: Whisk egg whites and sugar in heatproof bowl of electric mixer. Set bowl over pot of rapidly simmering water and whisk until mixture is hot to the touch and sugar is completely dissolved, about 1/2 to 2 min. Add ½ tsp salt and cream of tartar and whip on medium-high speed 2 min. Raise heat to high and whip again until medium-stiff glossy peaks form and meringue is still slightly warm, 2 to 3 min.; beat in vanilla. Do not overbeat.
